BusinessObjects Certification Exams

Hi all,

Little confusion here.

My aim is to get BOCP-BOE certification on XI3.0/3.1.

to get that certification should I pass first XIR2-related exams SABE201, SABE301, SABE401 and then take an additional exam(donno the code) for XI3.0/3.1?

or

Should I only take QAWI201V3.0 and QAWI301V3.0 to achieve the same result?

side note:
Although I have background in XIR2, I don’t need/want XIR2 certification.

if someone could enlighten me…

thanks

MrH.

I found the answers when trying to schedule the exams on Vue.com:

QAWI201V3.0, and QAWI301V3.0 only accomplishes BOCP-Webi 3.0 certification…

to have BOCP-BOEXI3.0 certification one should pass SABE201, SABE301, SABE401 --XIR2 track-- plus SABE501V3.0 --difference exam for XI3.0–

there is no separate set of exams offered only for XI3.0 BOCP-BOEXI3.0…

Hi,

Does anybody know if the (expensive) practice exams on the Internet like pass4sure and iexamskill are any good?

Thanks!

I wouldn’t spend any money on anything other than the official training from SAP. The exams are based on the SAP training materials, so you’re best bet is to use that, and gain experience with the product.

Hi,

Is there any certification in BO webi XI3.1?

I am able to find out XI 3.0 certifications like QAWI201V3.0 and QAWI301V3.0 but i am not able to find certifications related to BO XI 3.1

Thanks

The certification for Webi 3.0 applies to Webi 3.1 as well. So, no, there is no separate certification for Webi 3.1.

Hello Gurus,

Does anybody have an idea of when the certifcate is actually received after one passes sabe401? It has been more than a month and have not received anything from SAP yet. Also, is there a helpline that I can call and find out? :stupid:

Thanks in advance,
Kevin

Hi

I completed my BODI Certification Exams, DMDI201 and DMDI301, please let me know, if there is a way to track my Certificate despatch process and things like that.

If not, how long will it usually take for getting the certificates in hand. Please express your views.

Hi,
I have a question about Certification exams QAWI201V3.0 and QAWI301V3.0 (Business Objects Certified Professional – BusinessObjects Web Intelligence XI 3.0):

In the Exam Guide for these exams it says that:
QAWI201V3.0: Requires a minimum of six months to one year hands-on experience with BusinessObjects Web Intelligence XI 3.0 products and features including the use of Rich Client and InfoView within BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.0

QAWI301V3.0: Requires a minimum of two years hands-on experience with BusinessObjects Web Intelligence XI 3.0 products and advanced features/functions within BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.0.

While registering for the exam is it required to give the experience proof
OR
They ask for it on the day of the exam?

If yes, what sort of proof is required? I mean a letter from manager …

Can a fresher at all appear for the exam?

I am planning to give exam in the Chicago area and would appreciate if you’ll can help me with this requirement of the certification.

Thanks in advance,
Pratik

No proof of experience will be requested. It’s more of a strong recommendation than a requirement.


MichaelWelter :vatican_city: (BOB member since 2002-08-08)

Thanks mate for clarifying


pratikshah83 (BOB member since 2010-01-03)
