Actually this weekend Roy and I would have flown from Australia to New Zealand. We planned at least 5 seminars. And we’ll do them in person as soon as conditions allow. If you are not tired yet of all these seminars offered to you, then we have the right offering for you.

And not only for those of you based in Australia and New Zealand. Singapore, Japan, Korea and other countries in this part of the globe. Roy and I will run for 4+1 Seminars: Upgrade, Migrate, Consolidate to 19c – not only for Australia but also for many interested in Asia.
Why “+1”? Because we teamed up with Accenture – and Accenture will add 1 additional seminar after our 4. And we are very happy to have them on board. Our goal, as usual, is to deliver technical seminars, free of marketing, based on real-world experience and learnings.

These are the dates you need to mark in your calendars – every time at:
- 12:00h NZT
10:00h AEST
9:00h Japan / Korea
8:00h Singapore / Hong Kong / China

Thanks,
Mike
Hi Mike, mised the start of the series. would be nice if there is another session because we have to migrate from 12.2 to 19c with about 200 databases and information will be helpfull.
Thanks
Harald
Hi Harald,
hope all is well 🙂
Yes, we’ll have another series end of June. I will announce the dates either tomorrow or early next week.
Cheers,
Mike
Hello Mike,
Can you please let me know from where I can download these webinars?
Thanks,
Nilesh
Hi Nilesh,
please stay tuned. The ANZ events are already available but some things have changed. And we redo the events this week.
These are the previous recordings but they were cut to fit into a 90 min including QA session format.
The EMEA ones we are starting tomorrow don’t fall under this limit and have way more content.
Cheers,
Mike
