Submitted two abstracts to RMOUG Training Days 2018

I finally broke down and submitted my two talks to the RMOUG Training Days 2018. I’m not sure how likely I am to get my talks accepted but I learned a lot just through constructing my two abstracts. I have two talks that I have processed in my mind for a while:

  • Python for the Oracle DBA
  • Toastmasters for the Oracle DBA

These are just two things I’ve worked with and that I think have helped me in my job. Plus, they are two topics that interest me. Why talk about something boring just because you think other people want you to?

Anyway, it was fun to write the abstracts for two topics that I am passionate about. I have never been to RMOUG Training Days but I have heard a lot of good things. Hopefully I will get accepted and be able to get these talks out to the public.

I’m off next week so I don’t expect to blog until I get back to work. Maybe after I get back I can start to outline my Toastmasters talk in a few posts. I have given a couple of Toastmasters talks with similar material but this would be geared specifically for people who are more like me in the sense that they are Oracle DBAs.

Anyway, it was fun to get the abstracts turned in.

      Thanks for your comment. If I am able to do the talks I will share the slides and recordings if I have them on this blog. First I have to get one or both of the talks accepted. 🙂
