FAQ
Are you going to teach 130+ hrs?
Do we really need these many hours to learn SAP BW 7.0 & BO 3.1 ?
It takes 130+ hours to deliver my lecture for BW & BO, this is apart from you
practice sessions, your assignments you do, study material, reference material...The
course is very comprehensive, detail oriented, and we discuss a lot of project scenarios.
So it needs these many hours. Unless you get this detail & advanced knowledge
you cannot crack your technical interview for your job. If you are trying to learn
BW in 50-60 hrs, and hoping to get a job, you are wasting your time, energy &
money. I would rather say, do something better.
YOU CANNOT MASTER THIS SAP BW & BO IN FEW WEEKS. IT TAKES 3-4 MONTHS FOR YOU
TO GET A GOOD HANDLE ON THE SUBJECT, TO EXECUTE A PROJECT OR TO HANDLE AN INTERVIEW
SUCCESSFULLY. ASSUMING, YOU PUT IN THE REQUIRED EFFORT IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
How long will it take me to get
my first SAP Project?
From my previous batch students, it will take upto 2 months after the course completion.
This will depend upon how strong you are with the subject, how well you perform
in the interview, your flexibility to travel, your legal status (H1/Greencard/Citizens).
In this downturn of economy,
what is the prospect of an SAP BW BO job after the training?
I can't speak for every module in SAP. But for SAP BW BO, Dec 2008 - Mar 2008 was
horrible! April-May was luke warm, June onwards I would say it’s good, if you have
the right skills. I saw good # of requirements from June. Things are turning good.
But again, it’s the skills & technical competency that fetch you job.
I know an SAP BW consultant,
who is in bench for 2 months. Is the BW job prospects bad ?
You will always find some consultants on bench no matter what. Just because someone
is working in SAP BW for 3 yrs does not mean he is competent or skilled in BW. In
SAP BW, one has to keep himself proactively updating the latest developments &
updating his knowledge. You have to keep running to stay where you are at. I think
this applies for most things in technology. I feel that skilled consultants are
always in demand. Especially in a fragile economic situation like this, you got
to keep yourself equipped with good skills.
What should I do to improve my
SAP job prospects?
DIVERSIFY. If you are an SAP BW consultant, you need to broaden your horizon. I
strongly recommend learning BO, ABAP, EP, Visual Composer. The more related skill
set you have, you will always have more positions to target. Even from client perspective,
instead of hiring 2-3 consultants for BW & BO, ABAP, he will prefer to hire
just one consultant to do all jobs, and even pay more. That’s the strategy!
What is the success rate (students
working SAP BW BO) after they get trained from you?
My usual class size is 5-8 members. I observe 4-7 students getting into job within
1-3 months of course completion.
What is the approx billing rate
for SAP BW/BI?
I would say what you may get would be in the range 75 $/hr – 130 $/hr. If you heard
of that someone is getting 250$ /hr, I would say that’s NOT true or that may be
an exception. Usually the client pays from 100$ - 250$ depending on the position/requirement.
You may NOT get the entire billing, as you will have multiple companies that take
their commission. Some clients pay your project expenses (Hotel, Air fare, rental
car, food, Gas).
If you are looking for a permanent
(1) position 2-4 Yrs salary will be 90-110k
(2) 4+ Years salary will be 105-130K, and other benefits.
Don’t get lured by the $$$. It takes a significant focused effort to get there.
Nothing comes easy!
What are the prerequisites to
learn SAP BW/BI?
Unlike other modules in SAP like FICO, HR, SD where you need functional/industry
exposure, BW/BI does not have any big prerequisites. If you know what a database
is, what a table is, you are good. If you know any programming language, you can
easily learn ABAP.
Why do I see Visual Composer
/ ABAP / Portals in course curriculum, for a BW class?
Simple! You will have more jobs that you can apply. You will be able to demand more
billing. And you will be retained for longer terms, than your peers.
How many of your previous students
are certified, after the training?
In a class of 5-8 members, 4-7 students get certification. I strongly recommend
every SAP aspirants/student to complete the certification after the course. It has
a good reputation for your knowledge and skills.
Why do I need to attend classes
for SAP or why can’t I read and learn SAP from books?
SAP is not just clicking few buttons, browsing through the screens & talking
to the customer. Its far far far beyond it. You need to know what goes behind the
screens, you need to know the best practices, how the product works, how it can
be molded to clients requirements. It’s a skill. To learn & master it, it takes
patience, persistence & perseverance. But believe it, it pays. So you need someone
that can guide you through the complete process. A good instructor can get you great
start, on a successful SAP career.
Do you provide any support in
my first project?
If you attentive in the class, do all assignments & projects, you will be able
to do 98% of your project work without anyone’s help. Beyond it I can always help
you during the initial phase (2 months)
How long will you provide the
SAP access, How will I learn/practice after that?
You will receive SAP Server remote access for 4 months from day one of the class.
You will need this much time for you to practice and make yourself comfortable with
SAP. I do not own any server, I buy the server access from licensed SAP access provider.
What makes your
training so special?
I have been helping people from various backgrounds (students, software professionals,
housewives) for the past 4 years to get into SAP. I know what it takes to get a
job in SAP. I keep updating & improving my course contents every class. I bring
in the live project scenarios to help participants envision the project circumstance.
The course is geared with TWO objectives
(1) a career in SAP
(2) SAP Certification.
Most of my current students are referrals & word-of-mouth. OK I’m not trying
to brag here, just taking the credit for my effort.
PLEASE NOTE, THIS COURSE IS AN INDUVIDUAL OFFERED COURSE, NOT THRU ANY CONSULTING
FIRM. I DO NOT PROMISE ANY JOB OFFER, ACCOMODATION, H1 SPONSOR... YOU GET THE SKILLS
