You can still say you're 9i OCP but once it expires it won't be visible on =
certview so if an employer asks for proof you can't unless you have a hard/=
local copy.


At least that's how I interpret "You will lose access to your certificate a=
nd logo on CertView if your credential becomes inactive"


Regards,
Mike

I have to say I did not really get this.

Are they saying that if you are a 9i OCP and call yourself an OCP you will =
not be able to do that anymore? I thought it goes without saying that your =
cert is tied to the version of the software you achieved it with.

If I was going for a job I would always say 11g OCP. I hope to get the 12c =
OCP next year. I thought it was implied that continual certification was a =
given.
