Hi,
I am going to take OCP exam and found the mandatory training is so expensive. Either i take online or in class. Its about $3000-$4000.00 US dollar. Why it is so expensive. Is there any way out or any other way not to take so expensive training and get the certification.. Please let me know.
Thanks
Smriti

Hi - remember that you don't have to take the course(s) on which the exams are based. For 11g OCP, any one of these will meet the hands-on course requirement:
# Oracle Database 11g: Introduction to SQL Ed 1 LVC
# Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I
# Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals l Ed 1 LVC
# Oracle Database 11g: SQL and PL/SQL Fundamentals
# Oracle Database 11g: SQL and PL/SQL Fundamentals Ed 1 LVC
# Oracle Database 11g: Develop PL/SQL Program Units
# Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop I
# Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop I Ed 1.1 LVC
# Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop II
# Oracle Database 11g: Data Warehousing Fundamentals
* Oracle Database 11g: Performance Tuning
* Oracle Database 11g: RAC Administration
* Oracle Database 11g: Data Guard Administration
* Oracle Database 11g: Implement Streams
* Oracle Database 11g: Security
* Oracle Database 11g: Administer a Data Warehouse
* Oracle Database 11g: OLAP Essentials
* Oracle Database 11g: SQL Tuning Workshop
* Oracle Database 11g: Program with PL/SQL
* Oracle Database 11g: Program with PL/SQL Ed 1 LVC
* Oracle Database 11g: Advanced PL/SQL
* Oracle Spatial 11g: Essentials
* Oracle Database 11g: New Features for Administrators
* Oracle Database 11g: New Features for 9i DBAs
(list taken from education.oracle.com/certification)
So if you feel that you don't need to attend the exam courses, you can do the exams now. Then attend a shorter course that might be more useful. I've taught most of these, the three day SQL Tuning course might be good, or I think one of the PL/SQL courses (I don't teach them) is only two days.
Good luck.
