More than a fifty of our blog readers participated in the third survey which asked: "What are your OCP exam prep sources?" The survey results are in and illustrated in the pie-chart below.

The conference started early on a Sunday morning with Oracle User Groups hosting Special Interest Group meetings and Oracle University hosting two crammed sessions that were billed appropriately as exam cram sessions for Oracle E-Business Essentials and Oracle Database 11g New Features for Administrators respectively.

Oracle University announced the availability of the following new Oracle E-Business Suite (R12) certification exams in beta version:
- Oracle EBS R12: E-Business Essentials [1Z0-204]
- Oracle EBS R12: Inventory and Purchasing Fundamentals [1Z0-225]
...

Oracle Certification Program group lived up to its promise by delivering the Release 12 beta exams as a pre-Christmas gifts. While it is still early to open the seasonal gift wrapping, let us spend some time together in unwrapping this special gift and reading between the lines of the beta exams launch announcement.

The first wave of beta exams are is slated to include five exams of which three has been announced. The foundation exam for R12 E-Business Essentials (1Z0-204) is the equivalent of the current offering of R11i E-Business Essentials (1Z0-200). The exam content is essentially the same but includes R12 topics such as MOAC.

OCP credentials for Financials and Supply Chain has been replaced by Oracle Certified Expert (OCE). Only the Application DBA track would continue to offer OCP certification for R12 version.

For OCE certification, two certification tests from the R11i OCP edition have been combined as one. Hence, OCE exams would be for Inventory and Purchasing, Inventory and Order Management, General Ledger and Payables, General Ledger and Receivables.

While it means just passing one less exam to get certified, one predicts that the jumbo-combo policy will it more difficult to pass the exam. Some of our blog readers are already certified on R11i or are on the verge of completing their certification. As far as certification upgrade path is concerned, one has to take a single exam in their chosen track to obtain OCE certification.

The beta exams are expected to be offered for next three months followed by an eight week post-beta review period. Hence, one expects the production release of the R12 exams to be ready only by mid-2008 or later.

Many of our blog readers would be facing a dilemma whether to proceed with their plans of R11i OCP certification or take the beta exams for R12 OCE certification. The beta exams are being offered at a substantial discount of around 75% but it is a hard labor answering 200 plus questions over three hours or more. Setting aside the budgetary considerations, one needs to carefully judge one's individual need for R12 certification instead of the R11i one. If one is already working on a R12 environment or part of a R12 upgrade project, the certification process would be relevant and feasible. For those working in environments that are on R11i, it would be a challenge to prepare for the R12 exams unless one accesses a publicly available R12 instance to get up to speed with R12 concepts. 
 

After the Christmas and New Year holiday hibernation, the blog editor is back online to share such exciting times for the EBS OCP community in 2008. As mentioned in the previous post, Oracle has launched the R12 exams in beta phase. Possibly next week, the list of approved instructor-led online or in-class courses to satisfy the training fulfilment for certification, would be released.

One of the most popular OCP exam preparation material has been Oracle Tutor documents.
Oracle Tutor documents are delivered as patches on Oracle Metalink and are available for download. Previously, the patches were 'locked' and required a password to download. One to had create a Service Request (SR) to get the password. The good news on this front is that Tutor patches are unlocked now and passwords are not required for download.

There's good news for Oracle EBS practitioners in the manufacturing domain. Oracle Certification team announced today the release of a new certification track, the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) R12 Advanced Supply Chain Planning (ASCP) Certified Expert Consultant. Over the years, organizations around the world have implemented an Advanced Planning System such as ASCP that enabled a change in the planning process and allowed the company to drive greater disciplines in other departments to get the most out of their planning process. Typically, an ASCP expert would help an organization evaluate, plan, configure and introduce the new planning environment into the organization.

It's great to be back after a couple of months break from blogging. In the last few months, I had been part of two marathon efforts - one was a R12 upgrade project on a single global instance and the second one was running a marathon itself. With both those successful efforts behind me, I would be dedicating myself in once again to grow the population of the Oracle Certified Professionals and Oracle Certified Experts community.

Did you ever wonder how to stay up to date on your current or upcoming Oracle Certification? Apart from reading this blog very often!
