Hey All,
My boss has offered to sign me up for Oracle training, for free. I understand this is part one and will last 10 weeks for the online training followed by a one week in-person training with the exam at the end. I'm not an IT pro by any stretch of the imagination, but I do want to complete a healthcare informatics grad cert. so I thought this couldn't hurt. My question is how much IT knowledge do I need to get through this course and pass the exam? Our network security gal completed this training last year and she said it wasn't bad, but she is in IT! I'm in grad school, teaching a heavy load for spring and will be doing two other teaching retreat/conferences during the time of this online course and I want to make sure I can handle the work load. I don't like to do things half-assed so I want to make sure I can do this and pass the exam. Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
