You asked for it, you got it: C4C certification is now live! Just this week the certification test for C4C10, which is application and project implementation, has been released! Within the next couple of days the developer certification (C4C30) and integration certification (C4C50) will be released! I will update this blog when the C4C30 and C4C50 test are live.
Here is what you need to know if you are interested in taking the certification.
1. The exams are based on the course content. If you are relatively new to C4C, it's recommended you take the courses and participate on at least 1 project prior to taking the test.
2. As the courses are updated with new release functionality, the exams will also be updated with 'delta' tests. This enables you to keep your certification current. Right now we can't say exactly when our first delta exam will take place, but we are generally thinking 1511.
3. If you are in a location where the classes are not offered, or you already have some experience and want a refresher, you might want to enroll in the learning hub. The learning hub has all the course content. There is a C4C10 room that can be used to help you prepare for the test.
4. Susan Martin's blog is the best place to get details about enrolling to take the tests. I've got some tips below, but I can't answer all the questions on the logistics of signing up. Susan Martin and the certification team can answer all those detailed questions.
This is how I signed up to take the C4C10 test:
0. If you want to skip all the steps below and go directly to the C4C10 test -use this link: https://training.sap.com/shop/certification/c_c4c10_2015-sap-certified-application-consultant---sap-cloud-for-customer-g… It give some information on the test, including some sample questions.
1. First I went to https://training.sap.com and ensure I selected a country (US for me).
2. Then I went to http://training.sap.com/shop/certification
3. There is the option to subscribe or to login. The first time I selected subscribe. Then, of course, you get to pay some money for the joy of taking tests! The good thing is, with the subscription you can take up to 6 different tests in a year. The certification team can answer all your questions on this.
4. Once my subscription was all set, I just selected "Access" - now it is getting very exciting!!!
5. I can see things like a system test, see the most recent test (notice C4C10 on the left).
6. Then I went to the exam dashboard - setup my exam appointment and I'm off!!
Next week I will take the C4C10 and give you my feedback on the experience.
So, let's take some tests!
