I'm looking forwards to attend such course: http://unex.uci.edu/certificates/it/oracle_db/courses.asp..

look at the dates and time. Its quite intensive, my question: will i have a chance to write notes, because obviously i can remember all what i'm going to learn in one class, there must be my reference to review. Otherwise, it could be a waste of time or money...

Any idea about such courses?

Quick, practical guidance for and anyone else facing a 10:00–18:00, month-long Oracle class. An intensive schedule is normal for vendor-style bootcamps: you will not retain everything from lecture alone. Treat the course as structured input and plan deliberate, daily practice and a follow-up schedule so the investment isn’t lost.

Before day one, ask the organizer for the detailed syllabus, lab access (or VM image), and the instructor’s outline so you can pre-read key topics. Make sure your laptop can run the required tools, that you have admin rights for installs, and that you have a reliable way to connect to class labs. Confirm policies on recording and on getting copies of any labs or exercises after the class.

During class, focus on turning ephemeral lecture points into a compact, searchable reference. Use a consistent note structure: topic header, one-line summary, commands/snippets, and a 2–3 sentence “why it matters.” After each day, spend 30–60 minutes converting notes into a one-page summary and a single file with commands to run. Photograph whiteboard diagrams and clarify any ambiguous points with the instructor while the topic is fresh.

After the course, schedule hands-on tasks that recreate key lab exercises and build small end-to-end workflows (install, create schema, backup/restore, basic tuning). Request ongoing lab or VM access from the provider if possible. Building this deliberate practice into the weeks after the course is what converts an intensive class into lasting skill.

Those courses provide plenty of documentation to assistands. Probably for the money you pay, you'll have a complete slide presentation (on paper, the same as the speaker is using) and some extra docs, either on paper format or e-format.

It depends of the course, but for sure you can take notes in the paper borders to extend your understanding of some topic. Critical is the charge of practical issues.

As the brochure says, Text books and official material from oracle is included in the fee. So take it if you consider it worth the money.

Looks great. Hope I helped! And enjoy the course!!!
