About the Exam
The SAP Certified Application Associate – SAP HANA Cloud Modeling certification exam verifies that the candidate possesses the required knowledge in the SAP HANA Cloud for the profile of an SAP HANA Cloud application consultant.
Associate Level
Information about the exam is published on the SAP Training website. This is also where you can book the exam (or get a Certification Hub subscription).
HC is the code for SAP HANA Cloud, MOD for modeling. The C_ stands for the associate (consultant) level type exam.

Topic Areas
Exam Page
Information about the topic areas covered is listed on the exam information page together with the corresponding SAP training cours, HC300E for all but the basics, which are covered in HC100E.
However, an SAP Learning Hub subscription is not required as the content is also made available for free, time of writing, on the new SAP Learning portal (see below).
| Note the small print: “SAP reserves the right to update the exam content (topics, items, weighting) at any time” make sure to check the exam page before applying. |
Sample Questions
On the exam page, there is a link to a trial exam with 10 sample questions which closely resembles the real exam experience (by Questionmark).
If it is obvious what the answer should be for all questions, you are ready to take the exam. If you have no clue, you might want to study some more.
How to Prepare
Take a Learning Journey on SAP Learning
Time of writing, the learning content is freely available on the new SAP Learning portal, presented as learning journey with 12 units taking 16 hours to complete.
The first four units cover the HC100e cours and overlap with the Administration and the Development journeys.
The units cover the same material as found in the course manual but in a format more suitable for self-study with short sections of text combined with videos and quizes.
Take a Training Course on SAP Training / SAP Learning Hub
For those with an SAP Learning Hub subscription, or with a budget to burn, you can also sign up for the e-learning course
This provides you with the oldskool format. You can download the manual as PDF for offline viewing.
Additional Resources
SAP Help Portal
Although most material covered in the training courses is also documented “somewhere” in a guide on the SAP Help Portal, trying to pass the exam by studying the documentation is not the most effective approach.
However, as administrator, you are expected to be familiar with the documentation set so spending some on the Help Portal is time well spent.
SAP Developers
Some questions assume you are familiar with the user interface of the SAP HANA cockpit, the SAP HANA database explorer, and the SAP HANA Cloud Central web applications. Going through the tutorials on SAP Developers is highly recommended.
- Get Started with SAP HANA Cloud
- Jump Start Your SAP HANA Cloud, SAP HANA Database (free tier model or trial)
For the complete list, you can filter on SAP HANA Cloud which also includes tutorials for the modeling and development tracks.
SAP Community
Make sure to visit the topic area on the community for the latest blog posts, questions, video tutorials, etc. You can follow the topic area to be notified.
SAP HANA Academy | SAP Partner Innovation Lab

SAP PRESS
There is no SAP Certification Success Guide for the exam but there is e-book dedicated to SAP HANA Cloud which covers most topics but make sure to check the What’s New for QRC 1-4 2021 to complete the picture.

Hello Denys/other experts,
I am already certified in C_HCMOD_01 and could see there is another version, C_HCMOD_02 as well up for certification. May I know the difference between the two. Are there any siginificant additions with regards to Modeling in the _02 which doesn't exist in _01? Is there any added value in case I attempt _02.
I had tried searching for this topic on the SAP community and do not find any information that I would need hence I commented here.
Regards,
Vivek
Hi Vivek,
The cloud certifications are updated regularly. Same topics / topic areas. Some questions will have been retired and new ones added.
Version 02 appears to have been skipped. Current edition is 03.
You can find the latest edition on the SAP Training portal (search: C_HCMOD and/or the Certification Hub on Questionmark.com
See also the new learning site (with free learning content)
As mentioned: The certificate issued for passing this exam will be valid for 5 years.
In case your CER006 subscription is expiring and you still have attempts left, you could consider taking C_HCMOD03.
But if you are looking for a challenge, taking C_HANAIMP_18 (SPS 06) or C_HCDEV might be a better choice.
Hi Denys,
SAP is doing really great with new training content and examination, i'm curious to read HCxxx trainings and do the exams.
Regards
Said
