I am a Java/J2EE developer and want to add

general RDBMS & SQL skills to my skill-set.

So want to appear for the test

1Z0-001 Intro to Oracle: SQL and PL/SQL

Due to some career reasons
I am planning to take only 1Z0-001 test for the present.

I understand,I would be getting the certification as

"Oracle PL/SQL and Oracle Forms Developer"

only after I complete the other exams in the series.
But I plan to give the rest of the tests later based
on time and financial conditons.

In the meanwhile, if I pass the
1Z0-001 exam, I would like to show it as a part
of my skill-set in my future career progression including future
job interviews.


Can someone please tell me, if I pass the
1Z0-001 exam, WHETHER I WOULD BE GETTING ANY
HARD-COPY / (Printable-Soft-Copy) PROOF OF HAVING
CLEARED the 1Z0-001 exam which I can use for my future
career progression.

If I remember correctly, the only thing you get is a printout of your exam results. Nothing 'official', just a score sheet of how well you did on the different parts of the exam.

What you are planning to do is not uncommon however, and Oracle has a certification path for your needs. If you do 1Z0-007 and one extra exam (1Z0-147 Program with PL/SQL), you get a certificate too. You'd be OCA (Oracle Certified Associate). Perhaps that's interesting for you.

Hi Maaher

Thanks for the reply....

I think just printed copy of score card may not be enough,
especially while applying to bigger companies...

So I guess I will need to think more seriously about my decison to go for OCP.

Also requirements for OCA
(Oracle PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate)

are

1Z0-007 Introduction to Oracle9i: SQL®
OR
1Z0-001 Introduction to Oracle: SQL® and PL/SQL™


+

1Z0-147 Program with PL/SQL

What do you think about the choice between 1Z0-007
and 1Z0-001 ? Which one I should go for ?

Also, Oracle has introduced a new requirement of

Hands-On Course Requirement

for OCP which requires us to attend one instructor-led inClass or instructor-led online course
(which may mean more time, effort and money...)


From the requirement of OCA given at

http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=48#2


it is not clear whether Hands-On Course Requirement is required
for OCA also ?
Do you have any idea about this also ?

Thanks in advance......

A hands-on course is not necessary for OCA. That's a (silly) requirement for OCP DBA only (for now). And I don't think there's much difference between 1Z0-001 and 1Z0-007. And I asked a colleague (who recently started his OCP exams) and he just confirms my previous reply: you get a score sheet. That's it.

It is depand on your performance but minimum passing marks ( oracle 9i sql izo-007) is 70%.

and do the companies see the score sheet as well ..???
Yes, if you show you done Oracle Exam. then you should show score print copy with your CV.

@measdev
Already Maaher suggested your you have to done OCA then you will get OCA Certification from Oracle Corporation.
you can done OCA in two different field.
1. OCA Database track ----> IZO-007 + IZ0-031
2. OCA Developer track----> IZO-007 + IZO-147

you can give IZO-101. this paper include both SQL or PLSQL question.
