Re: [sap-career] Relevant Certification or Module with a Mechanical Engineering and Business Administration Degree

Dear Ashraf,

If you do not have the possibility of getting your hands on SAP it is not going to be easy to gain experience of the system in your present job. You could start by going to the SAP Help Portal http://help,sap,com where you will find all the standard SAP documentation. Start with ERP Central Components which will give you an understanding of the depth and breadth of the software. There are many paths to follow on this one website alone. Then you can use Google to find many more links to SAP materials, many of them free and downloadable. Look out for TERP10 materials because this is a fairly basic course that you can take without having to spend money.

Certification and formal classroom training can come later when you have learned something about the system, as these involve investing money and time and certification is supposed to be limited to those who have at least 2 years of experience of working with SAP. What you can find is a free CD from the SAP.com website that you can have sent to you and which can be installed on a private laptop or PC to give you a practice environment for ABAP programming. This is of limited usefulness if you do not want to be a programmer, but it allows you to get the "look and feel" of the system. You can also look around on the web for people who offer IDES systems to practise on. You will come across people who offer to sell you an entire SAP system on CDs or DVDs to install on your own computer but be wary of such offers. Usually these are illegal copies or doubtful quality copies, and sometimes people demand a lot of money up front and you never even see the goods. Then installing on a laptop or PC is not easy because SAP is usually a sever-based system and you only usually have a GUI on a personal computer. So be careful and be sure to ask people who know before buying any such offers.

You can build yourself a plan for gaining the experience and maybe for changing jobs later to get your hands on the system, but do not be in too much of a hurry and look at this long term.

I hope the above helps you to get started on learning SAP without too much investment.

Regards, Roy

Dear Roy

GOD bless you. I am very happy for your prompt and pleasant reply. The
answers to all your questions are as follows:

The question is what do you want to do in SAP?
I just want to increase my knowledge, skills and truly speaking make
my resume heavier to have a much better job.

Do you want to become an SAP consultant or do you just want to broaden
your knowledge of SAP in the context of your existing job and career?
Only want to broaden my knowledge of SAP in the context of your
existing job and career

What modules of SAP have you used?
In Project Management we don't use SAP here.

What experience with SAP do you already have? How long?
No prior experience. I am new to SAP.

Now can you advise me any thing? Thanks

Regards
Ashraf
