Certifications matter more to government contractors. Helps them sell you.
Matters less in the private sector. Government stuff is more about the pretty
resume. Alot of the people here do not have a degree(I have one) and you would
get passed over for government jobs for someone who is clearly weaker because
you do not have a degree. Rather silly, but happens. Or you might not get
passed over, you might just get offered less money.
Also the type of degree matters. They want computer science degrees. I'm doing
a masters now and had to take several undergraduate computer science degrees.
Though it is not totally related, it is useful stuff. Helps you see Oracle as a
software system and not just as a product. Though its not 100% essential.
