"There is no one right way to break into SAP. You need to remember that the key to getting a foothold into the SAP world is not through training courses, but through hands-on project experience. I recommend two practical things: Head towards the area of SAP that is most relevant to your current skills, and review the SAP job openings you see online and compare them with your current skills. My approach to breaking into SAP is not to take the sexiest course you can find, but to carefully map your current skills into SAP and fill in the blanks."

-- Jon Reed

You need two things to succeed as an independent SAP consultant: You need a hot, niche skill, backed up by years of relevant, focused experience, and you need client references from multiple SAP projects.
