Disclaimer: The certification data in these reports only reflects certifications which SAP view as ‘currently valid’ ~ typically the latest version of a certification
and the latest version -1 (e.g. if version 10 is the latest version, then versions 9 and 10 would be considered valid). Whilst a consultant can still legitimately hold
an older certification, it is not considered current by SAP and will not show in these reports.
For a full list of current SAP Certifications visit: https://training.sap.com/certification/validity
“The data provided in these reports is accurate according to the SAP systems at the time a certification was completed. If a consultant has since changed
employer this may not be reflected in our systems. The regions are based on where each consultant purchased their certification. If they are operating in a
different region then this will not necessarily be reflected in the reporting data. Consultants have to contact their local Education centers to transfer the
certificates in case they have changed the employer. Certification credentials can be managed in the Acclaim (www.youracclaim.com) platform. Changes will
only be reflected in these reports once a consultant has updated their details accordingly.
