Appropriate content and teaching methods

The content is interesting; however, I think that from the summary alone, it’s not immediately clear which topics will be covered in depth. For example, as an Oracle DBA, there are concepts I’m familiar with that we’ve spent time on (tablespaces, statistics, etc.). The problem isn’t the content of the course, but rather the clarity of what it covers and the expectations one might have of it. For instance, I thought the section on backup and restore would be more detailed.
