Working with a skilled and experienced partner is KEY to a successful implementation. SAP SuccessFactors offers two programs to help customers identify the right match: Consultant Certification and Recognized Expertise. Both programs validate partner credentials in distinct ways…
Consultant certification:
Our certification programs are for individual consultants. ALL consultants, SAP SuccessFactors and partner consultants, must maintain in-depth product knowledge to work with customers, as demonstrated by passing an initial exam. We call this Associate Certification, and it must be maintained quarterly by passing delta assessments to ensure up-to-date product knowledge.
SAP SuccessFactors Professional Certification is the highest level of achievement in our SAP Cloud Certification program. It goes above and beyond Associate Certification and demonstrates practical and technical expertise by requiring that the consultant has led 3 successful (as validated by customers) implementations within the past three years. We encourage you to work with consultants who have demonstrated this level of expertise.

SAP Recognized Expertise (REX)
SAP Recognized Expertise is an accreditation program for partner companies that validates minimum qualifications. We offer REX accreditation in 4 SAP SuccessFactors solution areas: Employee Central and Payroll Solutions, Learning Solutions, Recruiting and Onboarding Solution, Talent Solutions.
To earn a REX accreditation, partner companies must have, at minimum, three currently certified consultants and three current customer references within a solution area. Additionally, Recognized Expertise is currently offered on a local market level, meaning partners must meet all criteria for the market in which they are applying. This ensures that project experience is relevant.
