  • Boston, MA-NH (1888PressRelease) April 06, 2011 - SAPexperts announces new article, "Going Under the Knife: How Johns Hopkins University Transformed Training from Classroom Lectures to a Hands-On Experience" available in their Project Expert knowledgebase.

    Johns Hopkins University and Heath System runs a complex SAP environment that includes financial, supply chain, and HR solutions and more than 10,000 users. When its initial SAP implementation went live, it was quick to create a training framework for its SAP users, and after real-world experience with the system, quick to realize that that framework needed to be revamped.

    The training demand for those users led Johns Hopkins to move from its original demo-only class structure to build a standalone training client in which students can get hands-on experience in the SAP system. Bob Croce, product director of SAPexperts states, "This article highlights the factors considered and processes used by Johns Hopkins to achieve a hands-on training experience with the SAP system."

    They moved from teaching through lectures to hands-on training thanks to a home-grown training client built by Johns Hopkins' IT organization with internal resources.
