SAP Navigation and Familiarisation Training
Project Objective: To deliver a SAP user management course delivered through virtual face-to-face training and computer-based modules to educate maintenance professionals on how to navigate, update and maintain the CMMS data to assure confidence in system use across the organisation.
Client: Oil and Gas Company
Duration: Ongoing
The request
- The client set a strategic objective to assure SAP user unification and alignment amongst the organisation to ensure confidence in using the system, and thus a return on investment relating to the SAP costs
- Due to lack of inhouse expertise, the client identified the need for external support in order enhance the maintenance teams SAP knowledge and ability to utilise the system
- Varying levels of expertise throughout the company as well as organisational changes meant training was essential to ensure all employees had the same levels of expertise in the system
Why were we contracted
ABL Training was selected to deliver this training due to:
- Our expertise in SAP functionality and data requirements for assuring successful and cost-effective use
- Our team of experienced trainers who are cable of delivering an engaging learning experience
- Our ability to verify learning through evidence-based assessments and grading to assure a return on investment for our client
- Our established library of course literature relating to this subject, providing a cost-effective solution to learning and development requirements for our client
What we did
The client requested a bespoke learning experience aligned to their business objectives and key requirements. To assure expectations were met, the team utilised existing ABL Training literature and tailored the contents to align with the company requirements.
Course Design: Project definitions of learning objectives were collated and the course outline was amended accordingly, as well as designing module facilitator guides and delegate packs aligned to the client’s requirements.
Course Development: Collaboration with the client was key to develop a virtual face-to-face training module as well as a bespoke computer-based training (CBT) course on SAP to familiarise and cover the basic navigation of the software. Learning outcome measures and specifications for performance evaluation were developed, as well as an analytical process for assessment with the client’s key personnel.
Course Delivery: The course was delivered to the maintenance team delegates through virtual face-to-face training for 22 employees with an interactive screenshare walk through display of the software. CBT screen recorded modules were also delivered, which were critical for training employees in China and Calgary as it meant they could do the training on their own accord.
Verification of Learning: All learning was verified through evidence-based assessments and ABL trainers graded work, providing a report to the client of the results.
