Since I'm not compensated in any way by this, I thought it would be 
valuable to forward a nice opportunity to learn from the best via 
webinar, at work or from home while wearing pajamas, eating bon-bons, 
and sipping mimosas, no matter where you are in the world.
Or, if you're near Minneapolis, hey yeah you betcha, you can fight 
through the snow to get to the venue, you know?  Oh yeah, you betcha, 
eh?  :-)

Oracle has been packing the PL/SQL language full of features for years. 
This leaves programmers with two big challenges: first, being aware of 
the most important of these features. Second, figuring out how to best 
apply these features so the result is code which is easy to read, 
maintain and enhance.

Making the Most of the Best of PL/SQL starts off with a review of the 
most critical features of the PL/SQL language, including features added 
in 11g: if you are not using these features, you simply cannot be 
writing optimal applications in PL/SQL. From there, we will focus 
exclusively on best practices: techniques for deploying key features, 
plus many ideas about how to improve the maintainability of your code.

*Topics covered include:*

  * Techniques to avoid hard-coding in all its forms
  * Best practices for writing SQL in PL/SQL
  * Leveraging key package features, from overloading to
    session-persistent data
  * Error management best practices
  * Application tracing and testing

To help students absorb the material most effectively, Steven will 
demonstrate all techniques with code samples (available for download) 
and test students with quizzes throughout the webinar.

**

*Question:            "I took "High Performance PL/SQL & 11g PL/SQL New 
Features" last March.  Is there two-days-worth of new material?"*

Answer: "We will kick off the training with approximately an hour of 
review of critical features of the PL/SQL language. From that point, the 
focus will be on how to best /apply/ those features and other aspects of 
the language in order to produce high-quality, highly maintainable code. 
So, yes, the vast majority of the coursework is new material, 
complementing what you learned in the earlier class."

**

*Question:            "I did not take "High Performance PL/SQL & 11g 
PL/SQL New Features" last March.  Will I be completely lost?"*

Answer:               "Not at all. We will start the course with a quick 
review of key features and the role they play. That will be sufficient 
to set the stage for the rest of this class."
