Either IT organisations or the SAP client/customers groom their employees as SAP consultants. Either employees are sponsored for certified courses and exams or they are trained in-house by the trainer.
If someone does not get this opportunity by the employer, and still wants to get into this field on their own, then it involves lot of strategy, money and risk. One has to be very enterprising to go through the learning experience and then finding a suitable job.
To pursue a full-time course in SAP, one has to leave the current job. Part-time courses are also available. One should be ready to take jobs with less pay packages in small companies to gain hands-on work experience. If the current job salary is considerably high, then one can opt for certified courses and exams. Certified consultants have better credibility in the job market and can be directly employed by tier-I companies, though perhaps at not very high salary packages.
Starting may be tough but journey is enjoyable. It may involve lot of travelling for implementation projects, but support projects are peaceful and do not involve frequent travelling.
