ORACLE object training now available

ParcPlace-Digitalk, in conjunction with Oracle Corp., has created an

object technology curriculum that will be taught to thousands of Oracle business and technology consultants around the world. Parcplace's object-oriented training curriculum will be the foundation of Oracle's Oracle8 product training program and will be used internally at Oracle to

prepare consultants to build Java-based, object-relational applications for new and existing Oracle databases. The three courses are:

        Object Concepts for Oracle Developers 
        Introduction to Java for Oracle Developers 
        Distributed Objects Workshop for Oracle Developers 

The curriculum emphasizes hands-on practice using Java to create database
applications and also integrate existing applications into a new enterprise
architecture based on Java, CORBA and NCA. The focus is on evolutionary integration of these technologies to provide a bridge to Oracle 8.

The 4-day courses are currently being piloted with a select group of Oracle
consultants. Parcplace is also making a public version of courses available to Oracle customers and the public. For more information on the courses visit the
training area of the Parcplace website at:
