Course Overview
Oracle publishes exam topics for its Oracle Cloud certifications, and experienced practitioners often find that daily project work covers some domains deeply while leaving others untouched. An administrator who configures workflows every week may never have set up a cost sheet, and a scheduler may rarely touch security profiles. Passing depends on closing those gaps methodically and on handling timed, scenario-based questions with discipline.
The Certification Preparation Bootcamp is the Academy's expert-level readiness programme, offered in four tracks: Aconex, Unifier, P6 EPPM and Fusion Project Management. Each track is mapped to the exam topics Oracle publishes for the relevant Oracle Cloud certification. Learners start with a diagnostic test, work through targeted domain reviews and labs, sit full-length timed mock exams and finish with an individual readiness review. Arkan is independent of Oracle; exams are registered and taken separately through Oracle.

Hands-on Workshops & Practical Exercises
Diagnostic and gap map
Sit a timed diagnostic for your chosen track and convert the results into a personal gap map and revision plan against the published exam topics.
Domain sprint labs
Work through short, focused configuration labs in the Academy environment for each domain where your diagnostic score falls below target.
Question anatomy clinic
Deconstruct scenario-based practice questions in small groups, identifying the tested concept, the distractors and the evidence for the correct answer.
Timed mock exams
Sit full-length mock exams under realistic timing, then review every question with the instructor and track progress by domain.
Peer teach-back
Explain a strong domain to peers from your track, reinforcing your own understanding while helping others close their gaps.

Classroom
Public bootcamp at the Academy in Riyadh and regional venues, with learners grouped by track for domain reviews and supervised mock exams.
On-site Corporate Training
Private bootcamp for a consultancy or owner PMIS team, with tracks and remediation labs selected from the team's combined diagnostic results.
