You may notice the title of the page is OCP -> OCM in 150 easy steps, 150 is a completely random number, (obviously...) I have no idea how long its going to take, or what I'm going to do in 3 steps time... Feel free to add your 2 cents worth as I go along, and if you reckon I've missed a step, let me know ;-)

The other thing to say here, is if you want to get your 10gOCM, NOW IS THE TIME to start if you wanna go through it with me! If you were thinking of it, or not thinking of it until I mentioned it, let me know.

As I mentioned in a previous post, I currently hold an 8i OCP, so I've got a bit of catching up to do to be able to get my 10g OCM, thankfully those nice people in Oracle Education have made an upgrade exam from 8i OCP to 10g OCP, so I can skip 9i. I would have liked to get 9i, and I may go back just for completeness later on, but anyway, onward and upward...

Okeydoykey, STEP 1. Get 10g OCP.

Here's the link to the exam topics, looks a bit daunting at first glance, but I reckon I can get through researching most of it no probs.

I'm not going to post all the links to the research I'm doing, coz that'll make it easy for anyone reading this later... I'll post questions I've got, and questions that other people ask me during the research they're doing, but don't think you're gonna get a free ride here... ;-)

OK, to give you a hand, here's a link to the first exam topic. Thats it, no more help after this one...



No, seriously, if I gave you to a link to what I thought was the answer, but had the wrong information on it, how would I feel... it's ok that I fail coz I stuffed up...
