SAP SuccessFactors Course with Certification

What You Learn in SAP SuccessFactors Training

SAP SuccessFactors is SAP's cloud suite for HR. It has separate modules for hiring, onboarding, goals, pay reviews, learning and more. All of them read from one central place, Employee Central, which is where SAP SuccessFactors training begins. That is where each person's job, department, location, manager and pay grade live.

Picture a new hire at a bank in Mumbai. Before she can be given goals, training or a salary review, someone must create her record, link her to a position, apply the right country rules and give her manager access to her data. All of that happens in Employee Central, and all of it is practised in SAP SuccessFactors training. This is why our SAP SuccessFactors training starts and stays with Employee Central: once you can build it, the other modules make far more sense.

If you have finished basic SAP SuccessFactors training and want an even deeper look at Employee Central settings, see our dedicated SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central training page.

SAP SuccessFactors Certification Explained

SAP does not offer one single SAP SuccessFactors certification. Each module has its own exam, and SAP runs all of them. Since this SAP SuccessFactors training is built on Employee Central, the matching SAP SuccessFactors certification is the Employee Central exam. Zeblearn adds its own course certificate when you finish the classes.

Question	Answer for C_THR81
Full exam name	SAP Certified – SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Core and Position Management
Code	C_THR81
How it tests you	You carry out real tasks in a SuccessFactors system
Time	3 hours
Pass mark	59%
Where to book	SAP Learning, with an SAP Learning Hub plan that includes exam attempts

Two Things to Check Before You Book

First, SuccessFactors gets two releases a year, so SAP refreshes its exams and may pause one while a new version is made. Look at the SAP SuccessFactors certification status on SAP Learning before you plan a date. Second, provisioning access is given only to certified consultants at registered SAP partner firms. Anyone else can still sit the SAP SuccessFactors certification and earn the credential.

Building on Your First SAP SuccessFactors Certification

After SAP SuccessFactors training, a common consultant profile is the Employee Central SAP SuccessFactors certification plus one more module. Popular second choices are SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting training, SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding 2.0 and SAP SuccessFactors Performance and Goals training, each with its own SAP exam.

SAP SuccessFactors Certification Cost in India

The SAP SuccessFactors certification fee is fixed by SAP and paid to SAP. What you pay depends on the SAP Learning Hub plan you choose. Rupee prices for the SAP SuccessFactors certification change, so check SAP Learning or ask our team before booking. The Zeblearn fee is for the SAP SuccessFactors training only, not the SAP SuccessFactors certification.

How SAP SuccessFactors Training Prepares You for the Exam

System tasks every week: in SAP SuccessFactors training, SAP SuccessFactors classes end with setup work in the system, the same style the exam uses
Extra time on hard areas: in SAP SuccessFactors training, permissions, business rules and position management get repeat practice
Short checks: quick SAP SuccessFactors certification style quizzes after each stage of the SAP SuccessFactors training
Timed mock: a full SAP SuccessFactors certification practice run before you book
Booking help: our team guides you through booking the SAP SuccessFactors certification on SAP Learning

FAQ

SAP SuccessFactors Training FAQs

Quick answers on SAP SuccessFactors training, the SAP SuccessFactors course fee and SAP SuccessFactors certification.

As you learn in SAP SuccessFactors training, companies use SAP SuccessFactors to manage HR in the cloud: employee records, hiring, onboarding, goals, pay reviews, learning and reports.

Every SuccessFactors module reads data from Employee Central, the subject of the SAP SuccessFactors certification, so it is the best place to start and the base of most consultant roles.

The 16 modules cover MDF, foundation objects, the data model, business rules, workflows, positions, time off, benefits, compensation, data tools, permissions, reports, integration and country settings.

SAP SuccessFactors classes and SAP SuccessFactors training suit HR executives, HRIS and payroll analysts, SAP HCM consultants, MBA HR graduates and IT staff moving into HR technology.

No. SAP SuccessFactors training is configuration work done through screens. Basic HR process knowledge is more useful than coding for SAP SuccessFactors training and the SAP SuccessFactors certification.

Yes, SAP SuccessFactors training suits freshers, especially MBA HR or BBA graduates. Freshers often start as junior or support consultants and grow with project experience.

The SAP SuccessFactors training runs for 8 weeks, with 2-hour live SAP SuccessFactors classes on weekday mornings or at the weekend.

SAP sets the SAP SuccessFactors certification fee and you pay SAP directly. Check the current rupee price on SAP Learning before booking, ideally near the end of SAP SuccessFactors training.

No. The Zeblearn fee covers SAP SuccessFactors training only, not the SAP SuccessFactors certification. The SAP exam is booked and paid on SAP Learning.

SAP HCM is the older on-premise HR system, and SAP SuccessFactors training covers its cloud successor. SAP SuccessFactors is the suite most new SAP HR projects use.

After SAP SuccessFactors training, common roles are SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Consultant, Junior SuccessFactors Consultant, HRIS Analyst, Support Consultant and HR Technology Specialist.
