PROVIDING CUSTOMIZED SAP TRAINING FOR YOUR TEAM

Improve Your SAP User Adoption

With an ever-changing world and workforce, training your staff on their latest SAP software implementation is a must for the success of any organization.

Whether you use SAP for Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Human Resources (HR), Analytics, Supply Chain, or Finance – do you know if your employees are using SAP efficiently and effectively to overcome challenges and increase growth?

When it comes to effectively planning for SAP training or any other new software implementation, the management team and the learning and development department need to work together to ensure that the true benefit is clear to employees.

 

Get the Right Training to Overcome your SAP Training Challenges

Are you faced with any of these SAP training challenges?

• Increased implementation training costs or time using traditional training methods
• Difficulties managing your training team, resources, or budget?
• Defining and managing a training plan and timeline
• Increased resources required for the upkeep of an SAP training environment
• Implementing real-time, live data for employee training records or no end of program evaluation reporting
• Avoiding low fidelity solutions that do not provide realistic scenarios or the necessary confidence to deal with real-life situations
• Keeping your training development in line with project development, to minimize rework due to process changes, improvements, or fixes
• Upskill experienced employees with in-depth SAP knowledge to utilize them as power users
• Creating and maintaining an up-to-date training library of multi-skilled, on-demand courses that covers your SAP software portfolio
• Integrating the latest SAP leading software components versions (e.g. SAP ERP 6.0, SAP S/4HANA 1809) into existing training
• Maintaining the internal training team's knowledge of SAP tools for creating learning such as ARIS or uPerform.
• Lack of digital learning solutions or learning management systems (LMS)
• Implementation of interactivity such as show-me, try-me, and test-me scenarios built into the program that results in unengaged learners

Developing Role-Specific Training Content

To ensure that you get the most relevant and engaging training experience, we develop customized content that tailors the message to meet your business. The content will have your company or industry-specific, real-life scenarios and examples. This can include your specific processes, products, and terminology. Once your plan of action is finalized, we can begin the development of your custom content.

Custom content will depend on your analysis and address your specific learners' needs:

• What specifics do they need to know to bridge their SAP knowledge or skills gaps?
• How will you build role-specific training content that will skew from person to person or department to department so that it is not redundant or irrelevant?
• What is going to be the best way to relay this training material?
• Are you going to have a series of in-class learning events supported by online training thereafter, or is this going to be a pure eLearning project?

Building out content that engages your learners will be dependent on how applicable the content is to your employee. Using real-life situations is a great way for employees to see how SAP will impact their regular day-to-day.

Also, by creating customized skill check development activities, we ensure the participants are engaged and can relate to the material. This ensures the further success of the program.

Although SAP can be applied industry-wide, your training content needs to be relevant to the employee and their position. Sharing a one-hour module on generic applications will not prove beneficial to the training program. Presented with generic information, learners often do not understand the application or the value and may even start to lose interest. The more specific you can be, the higher your adoption rates will be.

SAP Training Best Practices

Providing a tried and true effective learning solution, we adhere to SAP training best practices that involve:

1. Working with your business stakeholders to align training to your SAP implementation strategy or your SAP knowledge gaps

4. Use agile learning methodology and rapid authoring iteratively and incrementally to allow SAP technologies to be implemented with minimal employee impact
5. Provide learning paths for professional development from beginner to advanced skill levels and within various business functions or to stay current on your business processes and SAP curriculum
6. Build a learning partnership with you to not only evaluate the success of the SAP training we develop but also to share in your SAP success!

 

Continued Post Training Support

Effective SAP training is not a one-and-done endeavor.

When customizing your SAP training there should be a series of post-training event assets to coach and support your teams, such as how-to-videos or tutorials. They can also include reference guides or topic-based articles hosted on your learning management system (LMS). Following up on the training event is a key part of adoption and a good way to reinforce the importance of SAP as a tool for the organization to your employees.

It is also a great way to support management who may have repeat questions from teams, allowing them to direct them to the right content.

Following your training session, you should run further testing to gauge the competency level of those who participated. This ensures they have learned from the experience and retained the information provided. You should also consider tracking and further evaluating these results to identify any shortcomings or knowledge gaps. This allows you to address any potential problems before these become a larger issue.
