SAP Certified - SAP SuccessFactors Learning

Who it's for: Consultants — and HR-technology professionals moving into a learning-management role — who want a recognized associate credential proving they can configure and administer SAP SuccessFactors Learning as a mentored member of an implementation project team, from platform setup and content creation through assignments, assessments, security, and reporting.

The SAP® C_THR88 certification checks whether you can configure and administer the SAP SuccessFactors Learning solution in a real implementation context, not merely describe it. It spans the platform foundations the module sits on, the integration with SuccessFactors HCM, and the full learning-administration lifecycle — creating items, assembling curricula and programs, assigning learning, managing classes and history, building assessments and surveys, running reports, and designing the security domains and roles that govern access. Delivered as a Scenario-Based Assessment, the exam rewards applied work: you complete tasks within a realistic situation rather than answering isolated recall questions. It targets the consultant profile at an entry-level, project-participation depth, confirming you can contribute under the guidance of an experienced consultant.

1. 1Build a foundation in the SuccessFactors platform first — administration, role-based permissions, and navigation from the THR80 academy — before diving into the Learning-specific configuration, since the module sits on top of that platform layer.
2. 2Study the learning content model as one connected structure — items, curricula, and programs — and practise making each available to end users, because how you configure one shapes how learners are assigned and how requirements recur.
3. 3Give the security model its own dedicated study block: designing security domains, domain groups, and user, administrator, and instructor roles is high-value and quietly governs what every other administrator can see and do.
4. 4Rehearse the different ways to assign learning — directly from the user, through the manage-assignments tool, and automatically — since the correct method depends on the scenario and is easy to confuse under task conditions.
5. 5Work through assessments, online content, and reporting hands-on — creating exams and quizzes, importing content, and scheduling reports — so the applied steps feel automatic rather than something you only read about.
