Kaplan and SophLogic Partner to Provide Workforce Training for SAP Implementations

July 11, 2007

Atlanta, GA and Bradenton, FL July 11, 2007 – Kaplan IT Learning (www.kaplanitlearning.com), a leading IT training company, and SophLogic (www.sophlogic.com), an SAP and IT consulting company, have partnered to provide enterprises with comprehensive SAP implementation solutions.  Together, Kaplan and SophLogic will offer end-user training during the implementation of SAP enterprise software, as well as ongoing proficiency training.

Kaplan IT Learning’s award-winning STT Trainer simulation and documentation authoring software trains and supports the end users of enterprise applications.  STT Trainer rapidly generates and deploys training and support content, tracks training effectiveness and progress, and manages training content and training projects.  SophLogic, in turn, provides SAP implementations, upgrades, and support teams within its consulting practice.  The combined solution of STT Trainer and SophLogic’s implementation consulting services will enable enterprises implementing SAP to achieve higher return on investment through higher end-user acceptance and proficiency.

“STT Trainer provides a comprehensive and lower cost solution for clients considering more efficient ways of training their end-users on SAP,” said Michael Bovaird, President of SophLogic. A significant differentiator of STT Trainer is that it extends beyond supporting SAP.  All simulation training software reproduces aspects of the real software, captures interactions of subject matter experts, and automatically adds training instructions. STT Trainer is one of the first software simulation authoring tools to use .NET technology for the capture. This enables it to be application-neutral and, if needed, allows authors to incorporate simulations of different applications into the same lesson.
“SophLogic’s SAP expertise and focus provides clients with greater value through access to industry-leading IT and SAP consulting services and professional resources. Their implementation and consulting experience, along with their exceptional client base, make them the ideal partner,” said Brian Sholly, President of Kaplan IT Learning.

Why Choose SophLogic?


“A shortage of workers with SAP NetWeaver BI and XI skills, among others, is sending salaries skyrocketing for consultants and in-house IT workers, according to recent research. It's a shortage SAP itself is trying to address….Companies willing to pay a premium are snatching up that talent….[M]any companies are turning to…recruiters or employment professionals… There's five open jobs for every one qualified person with the latest NetWeaver skills. SAP announced last week that it needs at least another 30,000 skilled professionals to manage its products…. According to the survey….executives are not only afraid they won't find qualified people. They're afraid they're not going to be able to pay them…. Almost half of those surveyed are concerned they won't find employees with the ability to deal with and manage change, as well as the ability to think strategically, compared with one-fifth who are worried about finding people with the right IT skills…. Some are worried that this skills shortage will cause companies -- specifically the small and midsized ones at which SAP's new applications have been targeted -- to delay implementations.”
