ABAP Certification Prerequisite

Former Member — Wed, 11 Jul 2007 04:29:35 GMT

Hi all,

Do you know about the prerequisite for ABAP Certification ? I found this information:

The following options are available for SAP certification:

Option 1 - Attend the academy with SAP or any authorised training centre of SAP and apply for a certification at the end of the training program.

Option 2 - Direct certification based on SAP implementation experience. Here the pre requisites are :

- Minimum 2 years of SAP implementation experience

- Minimum 1 year employment with the current employer who should be a partner or customer of SAP.

- Registration should be done through the employer and not directly by the candidate.

I intend to take this certification "SAP Consultant Certification Development Consultant SAP NetWeaver 2004 - Application Development Focus ABAP", but I think that the rule "minimum 2 years of SAP implemenation" is not reasonable, right ? ABAP certification just focus on development experience ?

Do you know about this ? Could you please give me more information about this certification ? And the cost is about $600 - $700, right ?

Thank you very much. It's very urgent to me.

Best regards,

Sylvecast.

Hi,

Thanks for your replys. But i just want to know, when I apply my resume to SAP, what points I must have in order they allow me to write the test such as the years of experience and on which area, etc. ....

So, do you have any information about this ?

Thank you very much.

Since that you are wishing to write the certification test of ABAP, you should be having relevant experience minimum of 2 yrs with the supporting documents from your company.

A letter from your company stating that you are working in ABAP from so & so date to till date or so & so date (in case you shifted your company in between) mentioning your areas of expertise and your performance during this tenures. This should be signed by your proj manager or relevant head from your company.

Just send these docs to SAP as i said in my previous posts.

You will be contacted by a SAP person who will send you a format that is to be filled by you which has to be attached with the supproting documents. On which they will assess your profile and based on that they wil allow you to write the certification test.

First of all contact the SAP in your country.

Gopi
