Been talking to some training institue for training me on RAC, dataguard, ASM. Start tomorrow. Will cost me a pretty penny.
Been considering taking the entire Hyperion EPM training as a future step.
Considering taking the DW and BO training.
Strenghthen my DW and BI profile. But I guess I will first try and aim for a job as DBA and need to do some boning up.
Not much leads been worked on. Barely any job requirements for DBA, leave alone PM. Feeling a bit low...
Looking at redoing my resume for Product Mgmt and DBA profiles.
