ENC386 – From exams to real skills: SAP’s new performance-based and AI enabled certification approach

SAP is redefining how SAP Certification works – moving from multiple-choice testing to hands-on, performance-based assessments in real-world scenarios. Suzanne Heiob, Product Manager for SAP Certification, shares why this shift was necessary, how the new AI-enabled, open-book exams work, and what candidates can do to prepare effectively. We hear more about the variants like the scenario based role-plays or system based assessment. Suzanne also looks ahead in the future on the next important milestones. In the conversation, it becomes clear that this change isn’t just about testing knowledge, but about proving real, job-ready skills and performance– creating new opportunities for learners, learning managers and organizations alike.
