Patrice,
There is "resistance" to any training that I feel is necessary to further my
knowledge and/or enhance my understanding of the Oracle processes. Even though I have
money in the budget for such items I have to submit a business case defining the gains
to the company and after completing the course with a passing grade the company will
reimburse me the expenses for the course only. I also have to sign a waver that I will
pay the company back the full cost of the course if I leave their employment before
365 days. Needless to say I pay for everything myself and hope to write it off on
taxes if they ever get the bill signed into law.

Just out of curiosity, how many days / weeks of real training did your
employer provide you with in the last couple of years?
"real" is in quotes, I don't mean the little 1 - 3 day seminars given by
CareerTrack and other "training" companies, or management-related stuff like
little MBA-flavoured certificates from universities.
Oh, and did the amount of training you received match what you were told
during your job interview?
