SAP HANA certification its so confusing

[vinita_kasliwal]

Dear HANA experts

I have just begun in HANA and looking for the right certification so I can appear and get valid credentials..

For the same I have been struggling quite hard .. and its extremely confusing on how SAP could release so many certification ..

E_HANAAW141  : SAP Certified Development Specialist 

C_HANAIMP141 : SAP Certified Application Associate

C_HANATEC141 : SAP Certified Technology Associate

1. Which is the relevant certification for me and how are these certificates related ?

2. I know the version 151 is also released .. is there a lot of difference and does market really differentiate if you are on a lower version?

Please could some one help me get some idea on which one I should appear and what they really mean ?

Regards

Hi Vinita,

It is important to get certified based on your current role on HANA Each certification that you listed is built on topics covered in specific HANA trainings and different from each other, please refer the link below for the list of HANA trainings that are useful for each certification

answer to your questions:

1. Analyse what your current role is on HANA, if you are a beginner on HANA Administration you could choose C_HANTEC151, if you would like to be an implementation specialist then C_HANAIMP141 etc... I doubt if any certification is specific to cloud at this point....

2. The version 151 refers to the SPS09 version and it is suggested to go for the most recent HANA certification.

The best place to look for any updates on certification would be
