SAP Student Certificate
SAP Student Recognition Award Certificate
What you need to know: SAP course
As a member of the SAP University Alliances program, West Chester University's School of Business' Department of Management began offering SAP-integrated courses in the Fall 2020. SAP is the global leader in enterprise application software, with 440,000 customers in more than 180 countries.
Students who complete three of the SAP-integrated courses with a grade of “B” or better are eligible to receive the SAP Student Recognition Award certificate.
Please note that students who plan to take any of these courses specifically to obtain this certificate must check with the instructor to ensure the required SAP content will be covered that semester. Very likely, students can graduate with a Minor in Supply Chain Management (SCM) and SAP Certificate since most SAP courses will be based on the SCM minor courses. See the list of SAP-intergrated coursed below.
