Interest in Digital Skills Initiative Program

[iyanu]

Hello @David_Chaviano ! I recently came to Canada and wish to become an SAP Consultant here. I am a person of color and learned that without the requisite qualification, it'll be almost impossible to break into the tech sector in Canada. I'm joining this community to learn more about SAP, take courses on the platform, connect with professionals, and acquired certifications. I'm strongly interested in the Digital Skills Initiative and wish to obtain the certification attempt once I complete a learning path.

How did you discover SAP as a possible opportunity in Canada?

Hello @David_Chaviano! Thank you for the DM. I have filled out the application and enrolled in a Learning Journey.

I got an SAP role at Shell Nigeria six months before my moving to Canada and found out that SAP opportunities are well-remunerated in Canada. Nevertheless, for over six months now, I've tried to obtain an SAP role in Canada to no avail, and strongly believe that leveraging the Digital Skills Initiative program with boost my SAP candidacy in the Canadian job market!
