I think Oracle charges in the neighborhood of $2000 for a four or five day course. I'm not sure how many actual days of instruction you are getting over the 16 weeks, but the cost doesn't seem too bad. Will this lead to certification? If not, then I think I would question it.

The job market for Oracle DBAs seems quite good, at least for experienced ones. I'm really not certain how easy it is to move into a DBA position after taking a course like this.
