Not always though, some projects start out with gigs or TB of data or a very complex database, and usually you'll have a good idea up front if you really need a DBA or not.

Well the key here for any IT professional is the night course at SAIT or wherever. You can always get a DBA certificate or something later on. But it is essential that you continue your education. Secondly there is no better education then a job and working with people who have more experience then you as well.
