SAP Online Training Site Review

"Where Do I Get SAP Training Online?"
An Opinionated Guide to SAP Training Alternatives
from JonERP.com

Jon Reed’s introduction: I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: if you’re an aspiring consultant, there’s no substitute for getting SAP training and certification directly from SAP, which has classroom training options all over the world. Project team training for in-house teams is a different market entirely. If it’s a matter of getting your in-house team up to speed, there are many viable alternatives to SAP’s own training. I recommend looking at custom, on-site training from quality firms like SAPtips if that’s your interest.

But what if you’re an aspiring SAP consultant and you don’t have the time or funds for training directly from SAP? Are there viable alternatives online? We compiled the list below for just this reason.

If you're in a hurry and don't want to compare each option on the SAP Training Blog, I can tell you that so far I've gotten the best feedback for Michael Management SAP Training. You can compare and contrast all the SAP training options below.

About Our SAP Training Guide - Read First Print E-mail

Judging from our research, there aren’t that many good online SAP training options for the SAP consultant. But we did a pretty thorough search and evaluation of the sites out there that offered training. We only selected the sites that seemed to have put some real thought into their SAP training services.

In this review on online SAP training, we reviewed the currency of the training materials, the cost, the version numbers covered, and other useful specifics. So as you scroll through this list, you can get a sense of what each of these sites have to offer.

A word of caution: we have not sampled any of these materials ourselves at this time. Also keep in mind that the sites below that offer certification are NOT offering the same certification as SAP offers. They are offering their own proprietary certification, which may have some market value, but is not the equivalent of SAP’s own certification in perceived value.

Any purchases of training from any of these sites are made at your own risk. But we thought it might be useful to have the most useful-looking SAP training web sites for online training available in one place.

Note that these sites have been prioritized based on how impressed we were with the presentation and currency of their materials. If this page turns out to be a popular one on JonERP.com, we will add to it over time and perhaps make it searchable.

If you have a site you would like to have included on this list, please email us and we will consider it for evaluation and inclusion. If you have purchased materials from any of these sites and would like to offer us a rating/review we can share with other JonERP.com visitors, let us know.

"Jon, you are definitely spot on with your analysis of the SAP market. I've been using your websites for over five years now. Instead of buying all the SAP books, I use your stuff to catch up with what's new in the ever-increasing SAP market." - Mark

JonERP.com Reader Feedback

"I've kept up with your JonERP.com site for a long time and your articles via SearchSAP.com and elsewhere. I just realized a few months ago that you were also the author of the first SAP Consulting book that I read when I decided to take the leap from working at a Utility company to becoming an SAP Consultant. The SAP Consultant Handbook is a staple for any SAP consultant, new or experienced. I just wanted to thank you for the quality work."

- J. Michael Peace, Independent SAP Consultant -
