Oracle Database Administration Workshop Level 1
Duration: 4 Days
 Oracle Certified Master John Watson John wrote the EXAM Guide This course provides you with the skills necessary to create and administer an Oracle database. In this class you will concentrate on the skills and best practices required for day-to-day database administration tasks such as security, creating and managing users, space management, administering undo and redo, running utilities, configuring Oracle networking, and simple backup and recovery techniques. An in-depth discussion of Oracle instance and database architecture is also provided. The final three topics are optional for this course, as they are covered in real detail elsewhere in the curriculum. However, if time permits and students are interested, they may be covered to a certain extent. The course is run on the current release of database, but the instructors (OCM John Watson unless otherwise noted) will aways “back-port” the course to earlier releases where behavior has significantly changed. The delivery of this course was probably the best out of several online courses I have attended. Everything worked well.
[Instructor: John Watson] This course was definitely not light on content (like several courses – not skillbuilders, of course – that I have attended). It is nice to get that much value out of a week-long training.
