Certification Study Guide now available

MySQL Certification Study Guide I passed the Core exam today, and at that with 15 minutes to spare! I owe this in large part to the MySQL Certification Study Guide, a very pleasant book, easy to use and with clear explanations. Many thanks to you and your coauthors for this fine book! — Ida Engqvist, Department of Neuroscience, Karolinska Institutet, Sweden

The MySQL certification program is very useful, particularly for us DBAs, as it provides a basis for international recognition and of course a salary raise, but also to promote MySQL software. I found that questions on the MySQL DBA exams are more difficult than those on the Oracle DBA exams (I'm also Oracle OCP DBA). Without MySQL the 5.0 Certification Study Guide I wouldn't have passed the exam. It taught me things I didn't know existed in MySQL. — Dejan Topalovic - Database Consultant and DBA
