To be fair, Oracle always train their guys on their own courses with Joe public. Why not? They're the best oracle trainers in the country and run their courses regularly- makes sense to do it 'in house' rather than run private courses. I've had Oracle trainers with 10+ years experience sat as punters on the same training course as me to get them up to speed on new features.

Tim's right about the public schoolboy thing though...
