Re: Oracle License for Training

Did you ever consider that your (prospective) trainig candidates get the (for testing purposes freely downloadable) oracle software themselves and install it themselves (or assisted by you) on a good (linux - one might hope ;-)) box and then you assist them by getting along with this?

I think this means, that you would not provide the software yourself - this is done by your traning candidates.

As I am neither a jurist nor a lawyer, so I hope this is not pure nonsense - especially regarding the license agreement on technet.oracle.com.

Apologies for any typing mistakes I failed to notice

A couple of friends and I are thinking of putting up a small training company here in the Phils.
(When we say small...its really small with almost 0 capitalization...just sheer guts and technical knowhow) We have looked at OTN and checked the licensing terms for the use of the software for training.
We have stumbled on this provision:

    You may not:
    ·use the programs to provide third party training; I was wondering if any of you know if there is a different licensing for training institutions?
How does a non-oracle partner acquire license to use Oracle DB software for training?
I am looking at partnering with Oracle, but we are just starting and partnering costs $$.
I dare not call Oracle Philippines just yet...If there is a need to purchase, and if we have the money, only then will we contact them.

Thanks.

=)
