This course counts towards the Hands-on course requirement for the Oracle Database 10g Administrator certification.
 
This course introduces students to PL/SQL and helps them understand the benefits of this powerful programming language. In the class, students learn to create PL/SQL blocks of application code that can be shared by multiple forms, reports, and data management applications. Students learn to create anonymous PL/SQL blocks and are introduced to stored procedures and functions. They learn about declaring variables, trapping exceptions and they also learn to declare and control cursors.

In class students learn to develop, execute and manage PL\SQL stored program units like procedures, functions, packages and database triggers. Student also learns to manage object dependencies and recompilation of invalid objects. This course also describes the characteristics and ways of manipulation of large objects. Students are introduced to the utilization of some of the Oracle-supplied packages.

Learn To:

Create Executable Section and write Control Structures
Create and manage Procedures, Functions, Packages and Triggers
Work with Composite Data Types and cursors
Utilizing Oracle-Supplied Packages in Application Development
Including Exception Handling
Manage Dependencies and Large Objects
