SAP BI course

hello,
i am planning to pursue a course in SAP BI.
i have read in many articles that for BI, one should have good knowledge about sql, abap and java.
though i dont have prior knowledge of SAP ABAP or data warehousing, i do have hands on experience of using SQL and little knowledge about java as well.
can someone pls suggest me if i can pursue my career in SAP BI??
any help in this regard is welcomed....

Hello Mr Brijesh,
Its a good idea to pursue a course in Sap BI. knowledge on java or SQL is not a pre-requisite for learning the SAP BI but will be an added advantage.
I would suggest you to pursue both BI and BO, as BI is includes data warehousing concepts as well as Reporting tools and BO only has Reporting tools. Later in the future, there is more scope for jobs for a person who has both datawarehousing and reporting tools. At present the market is slowly moving towards BO rather than BI. This would take another few years to completely shift to SAP BO.
I would suggest you to learn SAP BI first and upgrade your skills to SAP BO.
I dont think the training cost for learning the BI is as high as u quoted unless you go for certification too. But, in any case please tell us the place where you live and status of your education to guide you well.
Thank you,
All the Best :-)

  • Please suggest Universities w/t Full time SAP/ERP courses in US

    Hi Seniors,
    I'm sorry if this query is posted elsewhere in the forum. I'm and MBA graduate with around 5 Years of HR experience. I'm currently thinking about becoming an SAP Functional consultant in my experience area. Since US is the best market for SAP I'm interested to pursue my PG in SAP/ERP in the US. However, most of the SAP courses are in collaboration with MBA programs. Can anyone please suggest me Universities that conduct full time SAP/ERP courses in the US (any location). Since I have already completed my MBA I don't want to pursue MBA related SAP course.
    I'm currently in India and is aiming at the Jan 2015 intake. Therefore, the suggested course/Universities should be able to sponsor International students. Thanks in advance to all your help and suggestions. You can anytime reach me on: [email protected] .

    Got the info from SAP.

  • SAP eLearning Course

    Hi friends..
    I need some suggestion from you guys regarding the eLearning course of SAP SD that Siemens conducts.
    I am working in SAP SD for a Non IT company. I don’t have much of real time implementation exposure in SAP SD.  I have intermediate level of knowledge in SD and also know its customization and configuration part. What I am lacking in, is a full life cycle implementation.
    So, for me, will you suggest whether SAP eLearning course from Siemens is suitable or not??
    I want to go for it because after that I can write the certification exam.
    Waiting for your Replies..
    Regards

  • SAP Training course

    All,
    I'm currently a Net weaver XI consultant and my company wants me to train on FI. My company is expecting to start in a techno-functional role after getting trained. (more technical than functional)
    I was looking at the SAP training curriculum and i'm seeing the TFIN50 and TFIN52 courses? Are these courses a good starting point? Or are they very basic and limited?
    Or are there some better choices that will a better in depth training in FI?
    Thanks.

    What areas in Finance will you cover, Finance, AR, AP, AA, and GL.
    Controlling. PCA, CCA, PA, PS.
    There are many areas and you need to make sure you understand each one.
    I would suggest going to SAP Press and purchasing a book in Finance as they are much cheaper and they explain the key business processes with screen shots for you and basic configuration.
    Hope this helps and good luck.

    Hi,
      Don't worry about certification at this point. Get some SAP-approved training, get a beginner's job, gain some knowledge and experience, then go for certification.
    Yes, there are plenty of jobs all around the world for knowledgeable, experienced SAP people. Just look on jobserve!  Certification is not a requirement for most jobs, it is just icing on the cake.
    Good luck!
