GP mentioned Banner. The company that sells Banner (which uses Oracle on the back-end), merged with another, so now also sells a product in the same space that uses MSSQL on the back-end. The product that uses Oracle is priced lower than the one that use MSSQL by approximately the difference in DB license costs, so the two products come out pretty similar for total cost (I've heard that this pricing scheme was intentional to prevent one product line from cannibalizing the other after the merger).

Of the three public higher ed institutions within a 100 mi redius of me, all are Oracle on the back-end, two Banner and one Peoplesoft.

To the OP, your mom can watch university and community college job boards and search for keywords like "Banner" and "Peoplesoft". Banner jobs will likely be either one of, or a combination of Oracle DBA and writing PL/SQL.
