Free Certs! Get Them Now!

OH! Sorry! Not the breath mints though.

1-Minute (or Less) Summary

Let’s face truth, Oracle’s Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) has and continues to grow quickly. It is the enterprise platform that is persuading many large companies. Because of that, you can neither ignore nor downplay its significance. To help you learn about and make a transition to OCI, Oracle University is offering free certifications now through August 31. Act now! Supplies are unlimited!*

* Supplies are not actually unlimited. There are daily testing limits. But, you get the idea.

The Whole Story

When I first read, through an internal email, that Oracle was giving away free Certs. I was ecstatic. Seriously! Who wouldn’t be? I love those mints.

Actually! I loved those mints. They haven’t been available since 2018. So, I figured that Oracle had a supersecret stash. Sort of the data warehouse of Certs. Alas! This was not to be.

On the other hand, Oracle University is offering free OCI certification exams now through August 31, 2023. This is a really good offer. Sure! It is not as minty as a Certs, but you will add a certain “minty freshness” to your Oracle skills.
