Doing SAP certification outside India.

[Former Member]

Dear Friends,

I took my SAP HR training in India from non-authorized institute as it costs very very high from SAP authorized partners here.

I am planning to go abroad (Dubai/Singapore/Malaysia) for doing certification in SAP HR. My query is can i directly write the certification exam there or do i need to get enrolled in a course and then write the certification exam? What is the process to get certified outside India? Please can you share your views.

HI Sudha,

I got a mail from SAP Singapore as below. But some people telling that we can write sap certification in Singaore/Malaysia. But they are not giving any detail about the institute, how to apply etc.

We regret that you are not eligible to take the certification in Singapore or Malaysia.  In-house training/self-study are not acceptable.

Our criteria are, candidates must have at least 3 years of project implementation experiences and must provide at least 2 project letters to us for reviewing.

Amazing.

My experience in Australia, was this: I booked the certification exam online, paid my money, and turned up on the day.

No one asked me anything about experience or training (which I _do_ have). In fact, I didn't talk or correspond with anyone at SAP about the exam.

So maybe that's your best option - don't ask if you're allowed to do the test, just do it!

cheers

Hi Paul,

You made it seem so easy.

Could you also share what visa application do we need to file to go and just give the certification?

By the way congrats for getting certified!

You just need to organise/pay for the certification test online, then travel to the country (eg Australia) for a few days to sit the exam.

I don't know which countries require visa for Indian visitors. We seem to have plenty of Indians living / working / visiting in Australia, so I'm guessing it's not too difficult to come here.

Otherwise try South Africa - if I remember right, their certification test was also one of the cheapest.

Good luck and happy travels!

cheers

Dear Vaibhav,

Paul is a from Australia. It is only a suggestion really SCN cannot help with your visa requirements. If you are interested, you need to try on your own, I know it is not a big deal to get visa.

All the best.
