Welcome all registrants to the digital skills initiative by SAP Learning! This discussion page will serve as a guide and Q&A forum for all candidates who are working toward their SAP Certification with and without the assistance of an instructor-led boot camp.
Once you have registered via a participating organization, here are some steps to take to make it through the process:
Step 1 – Create an SAP Account
You will need an SAP account to track your studies and take a certification exam. Watch the demo in this blog for help on how to do that. Please use the same email address that you registered with the digital skills initiative.
Also be sure to join the beginner corner as demonstrated in the demo – this is how you can reach out and ask questions below.
Step 2 – Make sure you have context
We have a long blog available attempting to explain the whole "learning SAP" process from beginning to certification. Take from it what you need to ensure getting certified in SAP is worth the effort to you.
Step 3 – Understand how and what to study
Identify what learning journey your boot camp sessions will be covering.
For example: Onboard with SAP Activate for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Public Edition
Please keep in mind that our instructors cannot guide you through every piece of testable content of your learning journey in the time allotted for their sessions. You must also self-study through the learning journey as well – ideally before meeting the instructor so you can attend the sessions prepared with your questions.
Be sure the completion of this learning journey is recorded under your SAP account. (You need to be registered and logged in with the same email address that you signed up with the digital skills initiative.)
Step 4 – Use the sandbox system for hands-on practice
If this is your first foray into the SAP ecosystem, it’s important that you have touched an SAP system at least a few times.
Read this blog on how to practice with SAP S/4HANA Cloud for free.
Here is a link to an exercise guide that you can use on this system.
Step 5 – Receiving your certification attempt
After your learning journey completion, you will receive a redemption code for your SAP certification attempt. It may take some time to receive this code, apologies for the delay – we are working on this as fast as we can!
Step 6 - Schedule your exam
Check out our blog on how to schedule your SAP Certification exam.
Please feel free to drop a comment below if you have any questions or comments. Best of luck with your studies!

Hi,
The recording of Day 1 seems not to be working. It lasts for only 7s and has no content.

Hey David,
The recording for Day 1 is only 7 seconds long. Perhaps there was an error?
Thank you!

Hello @David_Chaviano
As we approach the end of the bootcamp, I wanted to ask you if there is a deadline for taking the certification exam?

Hi @kenza ,
Once you get your certification exam attempt, you will have 6 months to schedule the exam. I recommend you schedule it earlier rather than later though!
Bear with us with the certification exam distribution process - it's a bit rough/slow at the moment.

Hey David,
I had the following questions.
Are the two journeys we discussed during our boot camp sufficient for passing the certification exam? I noticed that when I clicked on the "View Certification" option in the "How to Prepare" section, there was a recommendation to complete a new journey called "Project Manage an SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Public Edition Implementation," which differs from the journeys we discussed.
When will the distribution process for the certification exam commence?
Can you provide an estimate of the number of study hours required to complete the certification (Including the journey time)?
Thanks!!

I can help with these questions:
I hope this helps!

The prerequisite for receiving a free certification attempt is to complete the learning journey. If you want to get your attempt ASAP, send a screenshot of your completion to digitalskills@sap.com.

Hello all,
I have a few colleagues who are interested in obtaining an SAP certificate. Is it possible for newly interested individuals to join the learning journey and have a chance to receive free certification?
Thank you.

Hey @David_Chaviano & @kate_wilson ,
Thank you so much for your amazing BootCamp. This helped me gain a lot of knowledge and ideas about SAP implementation. Unfortunately, I was unable to attend today's career fair. Where can I find each partner's point of contact to explore upcoming internships or full-time opportunities at their individual organizations? I recently graduated and am actively looking for SAP-related employment opportunities.
Thanks,
Pradynesh Bhoir
