Oracle Hyperion Certification

The Oracle Hyperion Certification is a free intermediate-level, 20-minute skill test from Science of Apps. It tests Oracle Hyperion and EPM skills — Essbase and multidimensional design, planning, forms, rules and Smart View, consolidation, close and reporting, and data integration, security and administration — written to Oracle EPM Cloud, EPM Planning and Essbase documentation for 2026. Many organisations are moving from on-premises Hyperion to Oracle EPM Cloud, so both are covered. Score 70% or more on its 20 questions to earn a verifiable Oracle Hyperion Proficiency certificate (SOA-OH). Every question is based on published standards and research — including Oracle Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) Cloud documentation (Oracle Help Center), Oracle Essbase documentation (Oracle Help Center), Oracle EPM Planning documentation (Oracle Help Center) — and each answer is explained with its source.

Yes. The questions are original scenarios written by Science of Apps, and each one is based on a public source you can read: Oracle Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) Cloud documentation (Oracle Help Center); Oracle Essbase documentation (Oracle Help Center); Oracle EPM Planning documentation (Oracle Help Center). The source is shown under each question and linked in the answer review. Science of Apps doesn't copy questions from other tests.
