   A WORD FROM OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS

 

 

 

“After 5 years of working experience in I.T support and programming work, I realize that I do not have a clear career path. My previous jobs do not offer much career advancement.

 

I made a conscious decision and sponsored myself for SAP ABAP Academy which equipped me with a comprehensive foundation to take on any SAP ABAP development work.

 

I strongly believe I had made a wise investment which will open up better opportunities in my career. Today, I am ready to participate and contribute in any SAP installation. With my SAP ABAP skills, I have a better career prospect."

-Wong Han Siong (Singapore), Independent Student

 

 

 

 

“My friend in Netherlands recommended me to attend SAP Singapore for the Basis Academy training. He is now planning for his next course in Singapore.

 

I had no previous experience with SAP R/3 and wanted to achieve a solid level of knowledge before working with the system. I expected the course to be very tough and intensive, and this was exactly the case. The instructor from encapp was good and my understanding of SAP concepts grew every day.

 

After five weeks I have achieved my goal of attaining certification for mySAP Technical Consultant with sound knowledge of Oracle Data Base Administration. I am very pleased with the training in Singapore and I will plan my future trainings there."

-Teppo Lahtinen (Finland),

Independent Student
