If you feel strong enough with basics you don't need to take any of these. What SAP suggests is to accomplish TAW10, TAW11, TAW12 courses (depending on cert.exam you want to take). Either ABAP Developer for SAP Netweaver 2004 or latest one ABAP Developer for SAP Netweaver 7.0. Both are mostly covered in mentioned courses. Second one just requires some WEB dynpro knowledge and Unicode. You don't have to attend any of them, just look for the meterials and get prepared with them. TAW10 and TAW12 can be easily found in net, TAW11 is hard to get, but still you can learn from other SAP materials covering same topics.</P><P></P><P>2) I don't know the cost in US, in Poland it cost me around $650 for Associate exam.</P><P>Check directly on <A href="http://www.sap.com/usa/services/education/certification/index.epx" target="test_blank">http://www.sap.com/usa/services/education/certification/index.epx</A> for pricing and further details.</P><P></P><P>Good luck!</P><P></P><P>Regards</P><P>Marcin</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 27 Jul 2009 19:09:48 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/abap-certification-questions/m-p/5904042#M1328557 MarcinPciak 2009-07-27T19:09:48Z Re: ABAP Certification questions https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/abap-certification-questions/m-p/5904043#M1328558 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Thank you all for the help!</P><P></P><P>Andy</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 27 Jul 2009 19:23:53 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/abap-certification-questions/m-p/5904043#M1328558 Former Member 2009-07-27T19:23:53Z
