Hi! (AoA). Hopefully, this message finds you well.

I'm Hamdan Zaheer Chartered Accountant Trainee Student in Pakistan. work as a Trainee in a local ERP firm, which course I should preferably join to grow my professional skills and have a certificate globally recognized according to my career path of CA.

Hi ,

Accounting is not my specialty, but we do have a lot of trainings on that subject. 

Right now, S/4HANA being our latest solution, you might want to investigate this accounting learning journey https://help.sap.com/learning-journeys/5002d32d7a261014ad3081b2533c7414. But again I'm not a specialist in this area... 🙂

@Lydie - How long did it take for you to get enabled and qualified to instruct each of these topics? How much time do you need to keep up to speed with all of them?

Hi David, 

Well, that's a tricky question. Let's see if I can remember 😉 

I had been a Consultant in Database Development and Administration for approximately 12 years when I started with SAP.  But I started giving trainings on those topics after just one or two years of experience. Same for BW then when I joined SAP and same for a lot of the products. Sometimes even after less than a year studying it. 

I guess it's not a matter of how long it takes but of how your mind is working 😉

If you are a trainer at heart, you can train on anything. Because a trainer is first a learner. So if you like to learn things then you will learn quickly and if you like to train you will instinctively know how to best transfer your knowledge.  And if you learn often, it's like sport for your brain, you will have a better memory and manage to remember a lot of things...:-)

I'm constantly learning. Even sometimes during actual training sessions because someone asks me a question I didn't think of before, so I look it up and remember it for next sessions.  

So I guess my answer to your questions would be : Teaching ability I'm born with, Products knowledge I can get by studying it actively during some weeks and keep learning all the time...
