Oracle Database: Program with PL/SQL Training Course

This three-day training provides a foundational overview of ORACLE PL/SQL, an application development framework designed for creating stored procedures, functions, and triggers that integrate SQL and PL/SQL commands. This curriculum is structured to support efficient development practices for government data management and system automation.

The instruction follows a workshop model, combining theoretical presentations, practical demonstrations, and hands-on exercises. While specific content may be tailored, a minimum of two days is required to cover the essential competencies for government application development.

Comprehensive training materials are provided, including sample database files, example SQL scripts, and open-source software tools for accessing ORACLE databases. These resources are selected to ensure compatibility with standard public sector IT environments and to facilitate secure, accountable data processing for government operations.

This instructor-led, live training in US (available online or on-site) is specifically designed for intermediate-level database administrators seeking to acquire in-depth proficiency in Oracle Database 19c PL/SQL programming and advanced SQL techniques for government operations.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be equipped to:

• Demonstrate a thorough understanding of both fundamental and advanced PL/SQL features.
• Construct complex SQL queries for the efficient retrieval and manipulation of data.
• Apply PL/SQL programming structures to oversee data integrity and database operations.
• Optimize SQL query performance for enhanced system efficiency.
• Leverage advanced PL/SQL capabilities, including collections, bulk processing, and comprehensive error handling.
• Effectively debug and manage PL/SQL program lifecycles.

This instructor-led, live training in US (delivered online or onsite) is designed for entry-level developers and database administrators seeking to master PL/SQL for the automation of database tasks, the implementation of business logic, and the construction of resilient database applications within public sector operations.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Develop optimized PL/SQL programs to automate database operations and integrate SQL commands effectively.
• Create reusable program units, including procedures, functions, packages, and triggers, to support modular and scalable applications.
• Implement advanced data structures, such as associative arrays, and manage query results using cursors.
• Handle errors robustly and secure code using encryption, obfuscation, and conditional compilation techniques.
• Apply PL/SQL in practical scenarios, leveraging built-in packages for file handling, email automation, and other advanced functionalities for government workflows.

This instructor-led, live training in US (online or onsite) is designed for advanced-level developers and database administrators seeking to develop high-performing, secure, and scalable database solutions for government while leveraging advanced programming techniques and integrations.

By the conclusion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Manage complex data types, collections, and bulk operations for efficient data management.
• Develop object types, table functions, and custom aggregates to enhance database functionality.
• Apply performance tuning techniques, utilize native compilation, and safeguard against SQL injection.
• Implement application contexts, VPD, and secure program units for robust database solutions for government.

This course is designed for database professionals who utilize SQL and require advanced procedural language capabilities to enhance operational workflows. It supports the integration of structured programming within database environments for improved data management and reporting.

PL/SQL (Procedural Language/Structured Query Language) in Oracle 19c represents Oracle Corporation’s procedural extension to SQL and the Oracle relational database environment. It facilitates the integration of procedural logic alongside SQL’s declarative capabilities, enabling the engineering of complex and high-performance database systems.

This instructor-led, live training (delivered online or on-site) is designed for intermediate-level developers and administrators seeking a robust PL/SQL programming foundation to build efficient and resilient database applications on Oracle 19c.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be equipped to:

• Achieve a comprehensive grasp of PL/SQL capabilities and its enhancements over standard SQL.
• Declare and utilize variables and diverse data types within PL/SQL blocks.
• Deploy control structures such as IF-THEN-ELSE, CASE statements, and loops to construct robust PL/SQL programs.
• Implement explicit and implicit cursors to optimize data retrieval processes.
• Manage exceptions proficiently using both predefined and user-defined error handling.
• Develop and maintain triggers to automate processes and enforce business rules.
• Construct and utilize PL/SQL packages to encapsulate and modularize code for reuse and long-term maintainability.

Course Delivery Model

• Interactive instruction and collaborative discussion.
• Extensive practice exercises and drills.
