I am a SAP Basis Administrator on a SAP R/3 3.1i platform running on Windows
NT 4.0. My company does not want to sponsor any formal SAP training
(Instructor Led Training.) However, the demands at work keeps increasing. I single-handedly manage the entire system with over 350 users.

Are there any other ways of obtaining training - something more affordable, perhaps? How about e-learning, CBT etc?
Wow! Have you got a tough job! Well, there are several products on the
market that can make your job easier - such as CentraOne, iTutor, PTS On
Demand. CentraOne is a collaborative learning tool that allows you to share
applications and training materials to deliver courses. iTutor and On
Demand are two tools that you can record macros and deliver the training
via a on-line help format as a tutorial. However, depending on the amount
of training and how quickly it's changed, updating the macros can be time
consuming. I also recently came across Authorware which you might want to
check out on the web, although I have never used it.
You can also use CATT which is part of SAP or a tool call Mercury QuickTest
to create lots of data from a scripts you record so that exercises can be
run. It sounds like you need to request mgt to allow you to train some
power users from each of the different areas across your company and in
turn, they can train their colleagues. Good Luck!
