About the SAP Young Professionals Program
The SAP Young Professionals Program is a free and intensive two-month training initiative created to empower young, talented graduates to become certified SAP Consultants.
Participants receive end-to-end (E2E) SAP training, hands-on technical exposure, and career development support, ensuring they are well-prepared to contribute to real-world digital transformation projects.
Through this program, SAP not only builds local talent but also supports economic growth by connecting skilled graduates to high-demand digital careers across Africa and beyond.
About the SAP Consultant Role
An SAP Consultant plays a vital role in helping organizations implement and optimize SAP’s software solutions. The role is typically divided into two key areas:
- Functional Consultant: Focuses on understanding business processes, requirements gathering, and system configuration to ensure SAP solutions align with client needs.
- Technical Consultant: Specializes in system integration, data migration, and development of customized solutions using SAP technologies.
Consultants are involved in every phase of an S/4HANA project, including:
- Blueprinting, design, and implementation
- Testing, deployment, and optimization
- Providing ongoing client support and continuous improvement guidance
SAP Consultants ensure that businesses maximize their technology investments while achieving greater efficiency, integration, and innovation.
