I'm not a fan of the 'have to have taken one course from 4 but we don't care
which one' requirement that looks like a straightforward revenue increasing
strategy to me. I am a fan of the 'Scenario based testing in all new Oracle
Certified Professional track exams (as of January 2002).' change that has
been made, that should increase the quality of OCP holders. Unless I don't
know what I'm reading this message appears to have been on the education
site since february 20002.
