CAREER PATH COURSES
Each path is a complete career roadmap. Not theory. Not a list of SAP
transactions. A practical, step-by-step guide to getting hired in your
chosen role.
Every path includes: what the role actually involves day-to-day, complete skills map (must-
have vs nice-to-have), training and certification roadmap (which ones to get and which to
skip), 15-20 interview questions with how to answer them, salary data across
US/UK/Germany/Middle East/India/Australia, LinkedIn repositioning template, and a week-
by-week 90-day action plan.
Pick one career path. 10 detailed modules. 60-80 minutes of video. Complete roadmap from skills to
action plan.

💡
Most students who complete the Career Assessment choose the All-Access bundle. After seeing all 20 paths and understanding the market, they want the flexibility to explore multiple directions and compare. The all-access bundle costs less than a single SAP certification exam — and certifications don't come with a career roadmap.
TECHNOLOGY & ARCHITECTURE — 5 PATHS
SAP AI Automation Engineer
Design, implement, and govern AI-powered automation within SAP. Think Joule configurations, agentic workflow design, process mining, AI use case identification. The role that didn't exist 3 years ago. Now every large SAP customer needs one. Fastest-growing SAP career path in 2026.
SAP Technical Architect
Own end-to-end technical landscapes. S/4HANA, BTP, cloud, hybrid, on-premise. Sizing, security, integration patterns, disaster recovery. The role that commands the highest rates in the SAP market. Requires deep technical breadth.

End-to-end solution design across all SAP modules. Bridge between business requirements and technical implementation. Lead blueprinting workshops. Define integration architecture. The person who holds the whole picture together.
SAP Integration Specialist
Connect SAP to everything. SAP Integration Suite, CPI, APIs, EDI, middleware. The glue that holds complex enterprise landscapes together. Demand increasing as every company moves to hybrid cloud architectures with dozens of connected systems.
SAP ABAP / Cloud Developer
Modern SAP development. Not classic ABAP. RAP (ABAP RESTful Application Programming), CDS views, CAP (Cloud Application Programming), Fiori/UI5, BTP extensions. The evolution path for ABAP developers who want to stay technical but stay relevant.
FINANCE — 2 PATHS
PATH 6
S/4HANA Finance Consultant
General Ledger, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, asset accounting, controlling, profitability analysis. The most natural transition for FICO professionals. High demand everywhere because every S/4HANA migration touches finance. Easiest path for existing SAP finance people.
Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A)
Budgeting, forecasting, financial consolidation. SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) Planning. Group reporting. The bridge between SAP finance data and business decision-making. Growing as companies want real-time financial planning, not annual spreadsheet exercises.
SUPPLY CHAIN & LOGISTICS — 3 PATHS
Supply Chain Planning Consultant
Demand planning, supply planning, inventory optimization. SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP). The role every supply chain company is hiring for. Hardest to find. Highest premiums. Requires domain knowledge — you can't fake understanding supply chain dynamics.
Procurement & Materials Management
S/4HANA Sourcing & Procurement. SAP Ariba. Supplier management. Purchase-to-pay automation. A stable, evergreen SAP role. Every company buys things. Every S/4HANA implementation includes procurement. Steady demand, reliable career.
Warehouse & Logistics (EWM/TM)
Extended Warehouse Management, Transportation Management. The physical operations side of SAP. EWM especially is in high demand as companies move from legacy WM to EWM in S/4HANA — it's a mandatory migration, not optional.
MANUFACTURING · SALES · CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE · HR — 4 PATHS
Manufacturing & Production Planning
PP, QM, Digital Manufacturing, MES integration. For SAP professionals in manufacturing industries. Niche but stable. Companies that manufacture don't stop manufacturing. IoT and Industry 4.0 are adding new layers to this role.
Sales & Distribution (SD / Order-to-Cash)
Order-to-Cash, pricing, billing, shipping, credit management. One of the original SAP modules. Still needed for every S/4HANA implementation. But you need S/4HANA-specific knowledge now. ECC-only SD skills are depreciating.
Customer Experience (CX / Commerce)
SAP Commerce Cloud, Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Marketing Cloud. The front-office SAP stack. Different from traditional ERP. Requires understanding of e-commerce, customer journeys, and cloud-native architecture. Growing segment.
SuccessFactors / HR Technology
Employee Central, talent management, recruiting, people analytics. SAP's cloud-first HR platform. Separate market from core ERP. Requires understanding of HR processes, not just SAP configuration. Good for people who understand the business of talent.
DATA · SECURITY · ASSET MANAGEMENT — 3 PATHS
Data & Analytics Specialist
SAP Datasphere, SAP Analytics Cloud, BW/4HANA. Data architecture, data warehousing, self-service analytics. Every company wants data-driven decisions. The bridge between raw SAP data and business insight. Growing as AI needs clean data foundations.
Security, GRC & Compliance
SAP authorization, Segregation of Duties, access governance, data privacy, audit trails. The role that every regulated industry needs. Banking, pharma, government, defense. Never glamorous. Always necessary. Recession-proof demand.
Plant Maintenance & Enterprise Asset Mgmt
PM, EAM, predictive maintenance, IoT sensor integration. For professionals in asset-heavy industries: oil & gas, utilities, manufacturing, mining, transportation. Niche but extremely stable. Companies can't stop maintaining physical assets.
TRANSFORMATION & ADVISORY — 3 PATHS
Process Transformation Advisor
SAP Signavio, process mining, process intelligence, Clean Core advisory. The role that bridges business process improvement and SAP technology. Growing fast as companies realize migration without transformation is pointless. Requires business acumen, not just technical skills.
SAP Program & Delivery Manager
Leading S/4HANA migration programs. SAP Activate methodology. Governance, risk management, stakeholder management, vendor coordination. The role for experienced SAP professionals who want to lead programs, not configure modules. $100M+ program experience is the differentiator.
Independent Advisor / Fractional CTO
Vendor-neutral advisory retainers. CIO-level strategic consulting. Expert network engagements. The path for 15+ year professionals who want freedom, control, and the highest earning potential in SAP. Not for everyone. But for those with the experience and network, it's transformative.

extra cost. Less than one SAP certification exam. More useful than any
certification by itself.
