Re: Oracle 8i VS Oracle 9i certificate

If you want to maximize your chances, first get certified in 8i, then write the delta exam to get certified in 9i also (it's only one more exam). You can become certified easily without buying any book or taking any class. Just use the manuals in tahiti.oracle.com (The Concepts, backups and Administration manuals are probably enough). Make sure to have Oracle at home to practice, and that should be enough. Look also on www.oraclenotes.com for some hints about the exams.
