Testimonials

"The ERPtips instructor geared this class to the students and their companies' Basis environments. We covered important topics that are hard to find practical information on, like kernel upgrades and hotpacks. I was later able to apply this knowledge to my company's own SAP system.

To get exposure to all the key material in this course, I might have had to take about three courses from SAP itself. The instructor went the extra mile to make sure that everyone's questions were answered."
