"The need for Oracle technical professionals has never been so great. Oracle's own certification program recently grew by 100 percent in just eight months and continues to grow at an incredible pace. Even with all these new OCP members, businesses using Oracle technologies still have a large amount of open job orders for OCPs. There just are not enough OCPs! What this really means is that should you choose to earn an Oracle certification, your opportunities will increase greatly, and recent metrics support this." - Mike Serpe, Oracle University, Certification Magazine
