Exploring SAP HR Careers, Certifications, and Transition from Functional HR Roles

Hi,

You don't think an MBA is important, or you think it is not compulsory. Anyone can learn SAP. It is his education and experience that will take him to becoming a Configurator or Consultant.

Hi Everyone,

I am a fresher in the HR field, so kindly forgive me if my suggestion seems incorrect to anyone. Sometime ago, while I was in my last semester of post-graduation in HR, I did inquire about SAP-HR. I learned two things: Firstly, there are many institutes that offer SAP courses in HR; however, only the SAP-HR certification from Siemens is considered valid in the job market, so I was advised not to join some other institute in a hurry. Secondly, I talked to the Siemens people about this: they said that doing SAP-HR is feasible only after I have at least 2 years of solid hardcore HR experience in a good corporate environment, not before.

Their fee is roughly around Rs. 3 Lakhs, and that would be a 6-week certification program, I believe, and that includes placement as well.
