Re: Oracle Training Alternatives

Take a look at http://www.dbdomain.com. I'm biased because I work there. But I really believe in the place and our training. You can take a look at our list of clients (most Fortune 500 and government agencies) at http://www.dbdomain.com/about-us.htm as well as the credentials of Steve Bobrowski who developers all of our training.

Online training might work for you depending on the number of users you have. You can call me at 1.800.235.3030 (USA) or 1.805.929.8905, or simply visit http://www.animatedlearning.com/testdrv.htm to see our free training courses. You can also view the more advanced training courses we have (in the free courses area simply click on any course title to see the table of contents).

Our training is unlike any other self-study training in that we employ hands-on exercises in over 95% of our courses. The exercises require you to work with a real, fully functioning copy of the database so that users immediately practice what they learn, which we find reinforces the learning much more than simply reading about the technology of using a simulator or test screen.

Okay, enough. Thanks for listening.
