How about those who are "Oracle Database 10g Administration Certified Professional (OCP)" certified? Are they also exempted from the training requirement?

Sorry Asif, but because this is an 11g certification, the 10g training does not count toward the requirement.

Is there a detailed course content overview available?

Yes, there actually is a better URL that we'll post above, and am including it here as well:

Training: "Oracle Database 11g: Performance Tuning"

Good luck!

Hi,

I am Oracle 10g certified DBA. Am I exempt from the training requirement ?

I think Oracle 10g certified DBA's should be exempted. Please confirm.

Thanks for answering.

Take care

Dan
