Most new hires at SAP want to hit the ground running – and we can help with that. Associates in the SAP Academy program will have a robust support structure. We’ll assign everyone a buddy and a mentor to guide you through your first month and beyond. Your “buddy” will answer all your questions about the SAP Academy program and day-to-day questions – like who’s who, what are the SAP systems and processes, and where you can find the cappuccino machine. Your mentor will be a senior employee in your field. He or she will be your primary point of contact during your field rotation, will share their experience with you and help you increase your knowledge and skills in a safe and supportive environment. A team of SAP trainers, known as the Academy Faculty, with extensive experience in sales, presales, field management, or enablement, will facilitate interactive training workshops for you, assess your skills, and provide you with regular coaching. On top of that, an Academy Director will serve as your functional manager throughout the program, supporting you with regular one-to-one meetings, performance development, and ensuring you have an overall quality experience.
