What is SAP training? How different is it? What
relevant course should I take?
The SAP eAcademy is the most comprehensive and
cost effective training offered for all SAP R/3 and mySAP products.
Regardless of whether you have an exposure to SAP or not, the eAcademy offers
courses that help to develop and enhance your skills. The eAcademy delivers a
hands-on classroom environment followed by an intensive case study to discuss
implementation requirements of SAP Systems. The eAcademy ends with a certification
where your acquired skills of SAP are tested and evaluated by SAP, which is a
benchmark to enter the SAP industry.
What are the prerequisites to pursue an SAP
module?
To take any Functional module, you need to have a
minimum of 1-2 years of industrial experience in the relevant business
function. To take the technical module of SAP you need to be strong in
programming concepts.
A candidate should also possess educational
qualifications like BE / B.Tech / B.Sc. (IT or CS) / BCA / MCA / M.Sc (CS or
IT) / MBA / MCom / CA or equivalent credentials.
How does SAP training help? Who can pursue this?
SAP Training develops skills and experience in
the practical management and application of technology. It is for everyone -
from everyday users to senior management. The course has been designed and
developed directly by SAP's Educational Services. There are also short duration
courses like TERP-10, which will give an overview of the entire gamut of SAP’s
offerings.
How is the eAcademy’s OLT (Online Training)
program different from an ILT (Instructor led Training)?
The contents of the eAcademy’s Online Training (OLT)
course is the same as the ILT (Instructor led Training) course, with the added
benefit of flexibility of time and pace. An added benefit is no dependence on
the quality of an instructor and the advantage of a virtual one on one learning
classroom. The cost is only an half of ILT courses and modules in latest version (SAP i2010).
How is the course delivered?
The course is delivered to you via the SAP
Learning Management System (LMS), a state of the art e-learning platform. Our
center in Chennai is connected to the SAP LMS via a secure Citrix gateway over
a dedicated SIFY connectivity.

SAP training with guaranteed placements. Are these trainings genuine and are
the certificates valid?
No, only SAP Authorized Education Partners for
eAcademy can offer training and certification direct from SAP AG, Germany

any institute other than the ones mentioned above. Certification Exams cannot
be taken separately by such candidates
Is the course theoretical or hands-on?
SAP Training is a combination of theory and
practice on the systems. Candidates are connected to SAP servers for completing
