> >I attend Chubb's DBA program. Chubb never told me I would be a junior DBA.That being said I have taken from Chubb a database system design course
that was excellent. Last term I took the first course in the oracle
series-Oracle 9i Sql. This course was intense 5 people were in the
class 2 people passed.I gave up a lot of weekends to pass that course
with an A.The course involved a lot of hands on execises using the
books from Oracle University. I also had to do a case study which
involved taking a business problem and mapping it to an ERD then
creating the tables with the proper constraints and populating the
tables. I then had to write several sequel quries to make sure I had
created the table properly.The next thing was to produce a report from
SQL*Plus that had to mimic the print out requirements..I was taught by
an OCP9i professional who is in the business.
I am taking Fundemental I and Fundementals II and Tuning. This
material is not easy and is being taught to us by a Oracle Certified
Master.My understanding is that there are not that many Masters in the
country. To sum this up Chubb is a good school to go to for Oracle
training,they don't hold your hand. You have to work at it. I have a
degree in CIS(learn much more at chubb technology wise),limited
technical experience and hoping this will help. So far Chubb has not
disappointed me. It hard for me to believe that some other school
would be better. We use Oracle University books and and a lot of
hands-on in class. The class is small (4 people) and very personable.
