Hello Team,
I want to take up SAP Certified Application Associate - SAP HANA 1.0 certification , but on the SAP certification website, i am not able to find venue,dates and fees for India. https://training.sap.com/in/en/certification/c_hanaimp_1-sap-certified-application-associate-sap-han...
Also wanted to know if training is compulsory before giving certification or not, do we have option to opt only for certification exam.
Kindly help on above mentioned points...
Regards
Laksh
Request clarification before answering.
can someone from SAP confirm this, i have already dropped mail to education-sap email address.. no response yet, and i cant find any guidelines on sap/scn as to how to give certification without HANA training, relevant work ex needed, if any(not sure since itself is ~1.5yr old). Can we give test via pearson vue test center anywhere in india and current employer recommendation.

Hi Laksh,
you may find this blog posting from my colleague in India useful - it explains the process prior to taking an exam in India. Feel free to reach out to Mageshwari Ramaiah directly and she can point you to the right contact.

Hi,
I feel there is a strict need of finding better ways for getting information about HANA certifications in India. Sending emails to some team, and waiting for reply is often time-taking it seems (although I got response within 13 minutes of my post, for which i am really happy. But still it seems many others are facing problems).
Is it not possible for SAP India team to do a small write-up about the SAP HANA certifications, including pre-requisites for training and exams, test center locations, cost and links to relevant information??
Hi Vishal,
All information relating to all the SAP certification are available at, HANA is a part of the same :

Hey Mageshwari,
These links provides most of the information that people (including me) were looking for.
These links don't appear in the google search list when searching using relavant keywords (i tried various combinations of phrase 'SAP HANA certification centers in India'). May be my ignorance about using proper search keywords.
Also, on reading this thread from top, it seems as if this information was provided only via emails to the interested people. So everyone had started posting their IDs. Surprisingly, these links have appeared in this post also after a long long discussion.
Thanks a lot for mentioning these links, these are of great help.
Found some good links related to HANA, that might be useful for you.
I have not taken the certification yet, but there are really good sources available on SCN site, which provides useful information.

Criteria:
1. To appear for Associate level certification on SAP HANA without attending any prior training you need minimum 1year of work experience in the module and version HANA 1.0.
2. The last 1 year should be with your present employer

Hi Vishal,
Thanks for such valuable information. Currently I am working in SAP Security. just 4 months old in SAP Security. Currently there are very less vacancies / job opportunities in HANA in India due to its expensive technology and less HANA experts. Moreover most of projects want to stick to/continue with Oracle/MS SQL.as HANA is new and bit expensive database.
Can you suggest me what should I do? be with security or look forward to HANA

Hey Nitin,
As per my understanding so far, the key power of SAP HANA is its in-memory concept (along with several other new things like column-store format etc.), which has revolutionized the basic architecture of storing and processing data. Almost all major giants are now exploring and implementing this concept into its products, be it Oracle or SQL Server.
So if you really want to learn something new, and if you have a developer/tester appetite, focus on the basic concepts rather than a specific technology/product, that would be more helpful in long run. Sooner or later, people having understanding of in-memory concepts would be given priority over learning a single product. It would be the application code's responsibility to harness full benefits of in-memory concepts.
Its same as focusing on OOP concepts over giving preference to any language (C++, Java).
Specific Tip for Jobs in India: Next five years down the line, i expect more cheaper devices with larger capacity, which would make this technology an easy pick for companies. So having HANA in your profile in some form or other would definitely play a good part. (It is always good to say that you have X years of experience in JAVA, and at same time you also know C++ since basic concepts are same there also )
Hi Nagarajan,
Please send an email to education.india@sap.com so that my team can send you the process for the same. Attach your latest profile containing SAP project experiences with the mail.

Maggie

Hey Mageshwari,
I guess we should be looking forward to increase the searchability of these webpages (carrying information about SAP HANA certification + India location). I also faced similar problem a while ago, and it seems that the pages are not getting up in the search results for most of the users (as visible in so many above queries).
We should include more keywords or other such mechanism, by which the relevant pages would appear in the Google search results.
Hi Maggie,
I had mailed to education.india@sap.com on 11th March 2014 & called several times to 080-66655771. There was no reply to my mail. The call was forwarded to an extension & auto reply said no such extension.....
Anyway, I am looking forward to register for the below training in next available schedule in Bangalore. Please connect me.
SAP HANA - Implementation & Modeling: SAP HANA 1.0 SPS06

Requests for Certification registration cannot be handled via here.
Thanks for your cooperation.

Hi All,
I'm preparing for SAP HANA certificate. Is it possible to write directly without attending SAP training?
I've contacted sap India(Mageshwari). They are telling to appear SAP certification S. SAP traning or Sap hana experience is mandatory. But these prerequisites are not mentioned anywhere in SAP official website .
Any idea why these restrictions are only in India ?
Please let me know if you anyone knows about this
Thanks
Raj

Hi,
Basis what preparation are you planning to appear for the SAP HANA certification. Please refer to the website below to understand the requirements to appear for the HANA certification :
You can write to education.india@sap.com if you have further queries regarding certifications in India.
Regards,
Maggie
Thanks Maggie for quick reply.
I've gone through the above website. In the SAP website it’s mentioned that “SAP recommends combining education courses and hands-on experience to prepare for your certification exam" - SAP have not mentioned that it’s mandatory.
Regarding exam preparation. Few of my friends (outside India) have cleared SAP HANA Certification without attending SAP training. I can get help from them.
Also there are lots of SAP HANA documents available in SAP website / SAP community.
Sorry for replying here. Most of the times I've not recd (or very delayed ) reply from SAP India.
Regards
Raj
Hi Everyone.
I am thinking about taking the Hana certification but I would like to know which manuals I have to study in order to assure a good grade in the exam. I already found the roadmaps but it is not clear for me which of all of the manuals mentioned there are useful for the exam.
HA100 and HA300 are the only ones I am sure that I have to study, but what about the other ones?
Thanks in advanced.
