ABAP Certification questions

Hi,

2 questions on ABAP certification:

1) Are there any courses that are MANDATORY prior to taking the certification exam? In other words, could I take the exam without having taken any formal courses if I should choose to do so?

2) What is the cost in USD to take the exam?

Thanks for your help!

Andy

Hi Andrew,

This question should be rather posted at [SAP Certified Professionals|;, but I htink moderators will move that for you.

As for the questions:

1) There is no mandatory course, only recommended ones. 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.

2) I don't know the cost in US, in Poland it cost me around $650 for Associate exam.

Check directly on http://www.sap.com/usa/services/education/certification/index.epx for pricing and further details.

Good luck!

Regards

Marcin
