New Information SAP BusinessObjects Certification - Official SAP Release

Effective April, 2010, there will be new SAP BusinessObjects certification exams available after realignment with the SAP certification program. All existing SAP BusinessObjects exams will be retired at the end of April, 2010 and will be replaced by the following three exams:


• SAP Certified Application Associate – SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.x
• SAP Certified Application Associate – Crystal Reports 2008
• SAP Certified Application Associate – BusinessObjects Web Intelligence XI 3.x

In addition to the test delivery via applicable Pearson VUE test centers, the new exams will also be available from April onwards at SAP Education Centers around the world.

For further information on the exams and their availability, please contact to your local SAP Education

The exam codes which should be bookable from mid-March onwards will be:

C_BOCR_08 -> SAP Certified Application Associate – Crystal Reports 2008
C_BOE_30 -> SAP Certified Application Associate – SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.x
C_BOWI_30 -> SAP Certified Application Associate – BusinessObjects Web Intelligence XI 3.x

So there will not be anymore SABE201, SABE301 and SABE401 and for Crystal report RDCR201 and RDCR301

The fees will also change according to the SAP standard Associates exams. I’m predicting it will $500, same as for all other SAP Associate Certification Exams, for each of these 3 exams.

Those holding the existing BusinessObjects certification are entitled to use the SAP Associate certification logo and title. The former BusinessObjects Certification branding and logo will no longer be used by SAP or provided to test takers.

I will keep adding more info to this later as it becomes available.
