SAP, a software application firm, has teamed up with the University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany, to extend an ancillary course in enterprise resource planning application to students in emerging market countries in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
This will enable the students to obtain an official SAP certification. The students are expected to be trained in several courses for 10 days. The courses will offer up to 300 participants the chance to acquire valuable SAP competencies during the period in Germany.
This will enable the students to enhance their career opportunities in emerging markets with strong demand for qualified SAP professionals.
The learning materials and tutorial support will be provided completely via e-learning through the university, while the final certificate examination will be held by SAP Education on site at local SAP training centres. The training is designed to provide participants with broad, well-founded knowledge of SAP ERP, its core business processes, and their operational interrelations..
