Cary Samulka, SAP

You may already know how SAP Learning Hub, our cloud-based platform offering thousands of SAP training materials, courses, and learning rooms, can help train and sustain your BI developers and super users. (If not, don’t worry - we will review this too.) With the new SAP Learning Hub, User Adoption Edition, you can now provide role-specific, hands-on training to your end users as well.

The user adoption edition of SAP Learning Hub provides robust support in a managed, private-cloud environment. This advanced learning management solution offers a centralized training portal for hosting content and pushing it to users. Included with this edition are:

• More than 3,000 simulations of SAP transactions and application procedures in multiple languages
• In-application guidance to support users in daily tasks
• Public and private learning rooms for effective collaboration
• Robust tools for tracking users’ progress toward learning goals
• An easy-to-use course authoring tool to create custom training content, and
• The option to purchase content-factory services from SAP partners

This session will showcase the BI training content available in the SAP Learning Hub, User Adoption Edition, and discuss how you can use, customize, or augment this content to create and deploy training programs for your organization. We will also provide use cases to show how SAP Analysis and BusinessObjects customers can utilize SAP Learning Hub during various stages of the implementation lifecycle.

Mondel?z/Knoa

Mondel?z International a $ 36 billion startup company is one of the few consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies that have multiple routes to market. Learn how KNOA is enabling Mondel?z to be “Best in Class” by viewing processes without noise. Understand how Knoa can help you define timing of process, understand system responses, and make decisive decisions. KNOA is seen as the tool for “opportunity” at Mondel?z by providing insight to the transactional unseen. Prior to the data provided by KNOA, Mondel?z was basing information from observing the end users, or manual tracking. All of which were flawed. With user experience data you can make the needed improvements for higher efficiencies and cost effective processes by taking the ambiguity out of the conversation
