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.
The blueprint areas to focus your preparation on.
Establishing the starting point for a Learning implementation — exploring the solution, applying the learning-needs management approach, linking the module to the wider SAP SuccessFactors HCM suite, and provisioning the user accounts and permissions that control who can access what.
Moving confidently through the different interfaces — the end-user, manager, and instructor views on the home page and library, plus the administrator interface, the entity manager, and entity search used to locate and work with user records and other objects.
Building and structuring the core learning content — creating items and configuring their entity tabs, assembling curricula with period-based and event- or calendar-based requirements, and setting up programs and their agendas — then releasing each to end users.
Delivering learning to people through direct, tool-based, and automatic assignment methods, creating and managing classes with their agendas and registration, configuring item relationships such as substitutes and prerequisites, and recording or editing learning history.
Enriching learning with online material and assessments — importing and revising online content, creating exams and quizzes, enabling adaptive learning, publishing training surveys, using AI-assisted features, and running, saving, and scheduling reports.
Governing access and system behavior — designing the security domain structure and domain groups, creating user, administrator, and instructor roles, and customizing global settings, custom pages, system properties, custom fields, and localization.
Handling notifications, approvals, and data movement — managing email notification templates and certificates of completion, configuring approval processes, and migrating data by leveraging and configuring connectors.
