National Capital Oracle User Group

About NATCAP-OUG

National Capital Oracle User Group (NATCAP-OUG or NATCAP for short, at www.natcapoug.org) is the only official WDC/VA/MD area Oracle user group meeting on a monthly or quarterly basis.  NATCAP covers all aspects of Oracle, including DBA, Design, Development, Data Warehousing/Business Intelligence, E-Business, and Oracle Applications/ERP, as well as third party tools which leverage Oracle server, middleware, or other technologies.

NATCAP is accredited as an official chapter of IOUG (www.ioug.org).  IOUG is the Independent Oracle Users Group (formerly called International Oracle Users Group), the world’s largest Oracle related user group.  NATCAP membership is FREE and if you attend (e.g. 3 meetings per year), substantial discounts are available should you wish to join or renew your membership in IOUG-A (IOUG of the Americas).  See Membership for details, and Meeting Schedule/Registration for details on upcoming events.

==> NOTE:  Although you don't need to be an official member of NATCAP-OUG or IOUG in order to participate in NATCAP-OUG meetings/events, NATCAP-OUG membership provides you with advance, detailed notification of upcoming meetings/events.

MEETINGS typically occur on the first or third Wednesday or Thursday of the month.  Usual location is at the big Oracle Corporation building with the small DOME on it in Reston, VA (see below) –– the building is visible from Dulles Toll Road (267) off the Reston Parkway exit North.  NATCAP-OUG has hosted other locations (e.g. Rockville, Maryland), and over the next year will try to better accommodate Maryland and WDC folks.
