I did Oracle DBA course at Oracle for V6, V7 upgrade. But now leave it to the full time DBAs

Before attending any DBA course, get to know SQL+, this in itself is a coule of days course. Getting certified is a long route and expensive if you have to do it yourself. However, once certified you will find there is a huge market out there for your skills.

Oracle is light years ahead of other RDBMS solutions in the delivery of solid, reliable database technologies, things like SQL server are still a toe in the water. The products that Oracle deliver are never what you would call "Leading Edge" but what they are are the tools that industry demands with the support that critical applications require.
