Career Certificates (Database Administration)

Career Certificates of Proficiency, designed to serve three purposes, are intended for…
• working adults who wish to pursue a new career or to learn new skills
• young adults who wish to pursue employment within the specializations offered
• students with degrees in other disciplines who are interested in studying information systems or computer technology.

 

Eight courses are required for this career certificate, which is intended to enhance students’ skills in Oracle database programming, design, and administration.


These courses give students the foundation to prepare for:

  1. Certification as an Oracle associate and professional.                                         
  2. Performance with Microsoft SQL Server.        

Courses completed earlier (e.g., those that were part of an A.A.S. degree, a certificate, or a degree at another college) do not need to be repeated.
