Hi people.
I have just handed my boss an application for OCPJP (formerly
SCJP 310-065) certification. I've wanted this qualification for a long long time and I'm not backing down anymore!! I know I can learn the course material myself and pay and sit the exam under my own steam but I though sod it, I'll try and get my company to pay for it. I applied for the 5 day course promoted on the Oracle website (5 days instructor led), here's what my boss came back with:
"5 days is too long to be doing this intensive technical stuff for, can you find somewhere that breaks down the modules and covers them say 2 days at a time"
"Is version 7 of the certification due out soon"
"is there alternative cheaper training available"
I'm really want the official Oracle training and not some cheaper alternative (not that i can find any other courses that are much cheaper anyway) so can you guys give me some ammo that I can go back to him with that will win him over.....
Thanks very much folks!
