Fast access
Start with live and high-priority pages
If you are new to cloud, start with a live foundation page such as CLF-C02, AZ-900, AI-900, or ACE. If you already know the platform basics, move directly to the role-based, specialist, or sample preview page that matches your target:
You can also browse by issuer:
Oracle pages are also live on the site for OCI 2025, Oracle Database SQL, MySQL 8.0, Oracle AI Autonomous Database 2025, Oracle Data Platform 2025, Java SE 17, and Java SE 21. Use Oracle certifications
when you need the right Oracle code first, then move into the matching exam page.
