A Firebrand Training
8
Day Course
The goal of this eight-day accelerated course is to provide IT professionals with the advanced knowledge and skills necessary to administer the world's leading database systems and applications. This is a performance-based course designed upon the job-related tasks an advanced professional must perform using new or modified features in the Oracle systems.
Firebrand Training's Program for both Oracle 10g DBA Certified Associate and Professional Certifications affords students the ability to live, learn, and take the vendor exams on-site at our education centres throughout the US and Europe. Our program is delivered in a distraction-free, immersed environment with on-site, deluxe accommodations - utilizing a curriculum adapted specifically for accelerated learning.
Our instructors are seasoned industry professionals (ranging from renowned authors to senior information technology consultants) with extensive real-world knowledge that is effectively relayed throughout our Oracle Accelerated Courses. The program instructor shall be available at all times to provide individual and group attention, lead lab exercises and practice sessions, and ensure the students' success. Our attention to detail shows in our unsurpassed instruction and customer service, our classroom and testing facilities, and our individual and corporate success stories.
From the skilful crafting of our unique curriculum to our careful selection of courseware to every detail of your training comfort, Firebrand Training is the best way to obtain your Oracle Certification. Other training providers cannot match our commitment to quality instruction-led training and top-notch educational facilities.
The demand for professionals in information technology (IT) is high and the competition for jobs is intense. Individuals, experienced or new to the profession, need to know what skills make them attractive to employers. Employers look for ways to distinguish employees and prospective employees that have the solid foundation of skills needed for effective performance.
The Oracle Certified Associate and Professional Program helps the IT industry make these distinctions by establishing a standard of competence in specific job roles. An Oracle Certification is a valuable, industry-recognized credential that signifies a proven level of knowledge and ability.
Reasons for certification include career advancement, personal improvement, skills enhancement, and higher salaries. According to Certification Magazine, http:/www.certmag.com, Oracle certified professionals earned 28% more money than the average IT certified professional. In addition, Computer Reseller News, http:/www.crn.com, cites that Oracle certified DBAs on average are paid 21% more than non-certified DBAs.
The Oracle Certified Associate/Professional Program can give you a distinct advantage. This certification demonstrates that you have solid understanding of a job role and Oracle products used in that role. Being an Oracle Certified Professional can help raise your visibility and increase access to the industry’s most challenging opportunities.
The Oracle Certified Associate/Professional Program is also valuable to hiring managers who want to distinguish among candidates for critical IT positions. For companies that send employees through annual IT training, certification ensures a return on the training investment by validating the knowledge and understanding gained at training sessions. Companies can also combine certification with an employee development program to enhance employee loyalty and performance on the job.
Hiring certified professionals has a direct impact on a company’s bottom line, as these conclusions from a research study by International Data Corporation** suggest:
Other accelerated training providers rely heavily on lecture and independent self-testing and study.
Effective technical instruction must be highly varied and interactive to keep attention levels high, promote camaraderie and teamwork between the students and instructor, and solidify knowledge through hands-on learning.
This information has been provided as a helpful tool for candidates considering certification. Benefits of certification determined through studies do not guarantee any particular personal successes. Firebrand Training provides a guarantee of obtaining certification at the camp, but does not make any guarantees about personal successes or benefits of obtaining certification.

Firebrand Training staff interview all potential students regarding their technical background, degrees and certifications held, and personal fortitude. This screening process ensures a successful match between the customer and Firebrand Training toward accelerated training and certification.

Firebrand Training is an aggressive training environment. You must have an attitude aimed for success. The above prerequisites are guidelines, but many students with less experience have other background or traits that have enabled their success in accelerated training through Firebrand Training.
"Very hard week, and you have to work with ORACLE a little time to understand everything. I'm from Germany and passed the tests. 6 days of lerning, 13 hours a day, with trainer and without. I couldn't imagine to pass it in this short time! THX"

"Der Kurs ist sehr hart, sehr viel Wissen in sehr kurzer Zeit. 15-16 Stunden taeglich. Es ist sehr hilfreich breite Vorkenntnisse zu haben.
Ein sehr grosser Vorteil ist, dass die Teacher Praxiserfahrung haben und wissen worueber sie reden. Vor allem das nicht alle Antworten richtig sind, sondern in der Praxis falsch.
Im Gegensatz zu anderen Anbietern wo reine Theoretiker sitzen, ist dies ein sehr grosser Vorteil. Die kleine Kursgroesse traegt dazu bei, dass das Lernen sehr effizient ist."
