How can I submit the SAP Certification from Ecuador???

[jruz]

Hi:

I live in Ecuador and I been three years programming SAP ABAP. I would like to take the SAP Certification Exam for ABAP but I need some advice.

Like since 2014 the SAP Certification voucher is no longer been paid by Pearson Vue but directly from SAP Training and Certification Shop I have now some doubts regarding this process.

• I´ve created an account on SAP Training and Certification Shop.
• I looked over for the certification I want but Ecuador is not on the set of countries listed there,
• I need to buy the voucher, but I don`t know if any voucher would work. None of the countries in the area offers this service as I can see on the site. Only USA, Canada and Mexico. When doing the buying process the site says clearly that I will have to take the examination in the same country specified when buying the voucher. Ecuador has some locations where I can take a Pearson Vue examination, but how can I get the voucher?? If I buy USA voucher i could take my exam in Ecuador? Please I need some clarification in this!!!
• The other matter is the s-user ID, the site says that I have to contact the Education centre from my area, but there isn`t any on Ecuador. Who should I contact to obtain my s-user ID in order to submit the exam via Pearson Vue??

In conclusion I would like you to help me guys in order to solve this matter. I been wanting to submit my exam for a long time now and I feel I`m ready but I`m kind of stuck in this subject. can anyone give me a hand???

Thanks in advance.

Hello José Antonio,

please, find your SAP Education contact here. Pearson VUE Vouchers are available in Latin America. For your ABAP Certification you should use an Associate Level Voucher.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Harald

Thanks Harald for your answer. I did as you recommended and called the number corresponding to the Ecuador office. I doesn´t work, there´s not even a tone, seems to be out of service. So I called the number from Colombia, same result. A similar outcome from calling to Chile and Peru. Now I´m still in the same place, don´t know how to proceed. Please if anyone can help me out!!!

Dear José,

I did wrote a personal message with further instructions. It must be possible for you to purchase a Voucher and to take your certification exam in Equador.

Let me know!

Best regards,

Harald

Thanks to the kind help of Harald Ernst and after talking to almost all latin american countries. I finally got the solution. The latin american area requires formal courses taken from SAP or SAP Partners to be able to buy an examination voucher, there´s no way around this. So in order to submit my exam I had to buy the SAP Education Courses (I recommend the SAP E-Academy cause now I´m an expert ). And after that then you will be able to buy your voucher directly from SAP or to submit the exam in case you bought the E-Academy (cause it comes with voucher included). For all the people who might want to submit the certification from Ecuador  I now recommend you to contact BM Laurus (SAP Partner in Ecuador) or to call SAP Education Colombia, they will surelly help you. Now I got the voucher and I´m ready to take the exam!!!!!
