The world's best Oracle
training comes from practicing Oracle consultants, real Oracle experts and
authors who combine years of experience with outstanding communications skills.
The problem is that the top Oracle experts are busy working with mission
critical databases and rarely do public training.
Only once per year, Burleson
Consulting offers a public training class, a rare opportunity to learn the
secrets of Oracle from some of the world's most highly regarded Oracle experts
and authors, people who have managed some of the world's largest and complex
databases.
