Description

Oracle 19c PL/SQL Fundamentals is a three-day, hands-on technical course that introduces Oracle database programming using the PL/SQL programming language. Throughout the course students will explore the core syntax, structure and features of the language. This course will also lay the foundation for the entire Oracle PL/SQL programming series, allowing one to progress from introductory topics to advanced application design and programming and finally onto writing complex high-performance applications. The course also explores applying the newly learned skills to the development of database applications. Participants will learn how to use database-resident stored program units such as procedures, functions, packages and database triggers. Students will also learn about the latest features in Oracle 19c.

Course Objectives

Working within in a hands-on learning environment, guided by our expert team, attendees will develop a practical approach to Oracle Database Technology. Throughout the course participants will explore:
•    Using PL/SQL programming language for database applications and development
•    incorporating PL/SQL modules within the application architecture from the initial design and planning phase
•    The essentials of building executable PL/SQL program units
•    Each of the major segments of a workin g program and how these interact with each other during program execution,
•    Important error or exception handling capabilities of the language.
•    How database-resident program units can be used as part of the overall database application architecture
•    Applying these new skills to the development of PL/SQL packages.
•    Advanced database programming capabilities and benefits
•    How database triggers can be used as part of an advanced database application design

Audience:

This course is geared for anyone needing to interface with an Oracle database such as end users, business analysts, application developers and database administrators / DBAs. Attendees should have incoming basic SQL experience, as well as an understanding of databases (required to manipulate it with PL/SQL).
