SAP is one of the most lucrative careers for people in the IT industry. SAP Synergy is a new division of The Weram Group International. It's a unique partnership with Griffin Consulting, known in the industry as a SAP specialist consultancy which has partnered with The Weram Group International to exchange different skill sets in a synergy of excellence. The Synergy provides innovative methods of learning skills in SAP conveniently.

The Weram Group International has the perfect solution to a common industry problem. The large business sector needs SAP-experienced personnel while private individuals and contractors are looking for organisations to join. SapSynergy is the link, the ultimate solution to proving essential SAP training to users, for users on all levels.

Through experience in various projects, The Weram Group International has recognised the level of inexperienced personnel on site projects and concluded that it can provide a sound layer of training to such consultants or employees, getting them up to scratch with essential troubleshooting scenarios adding an enormous amount of value to the pool of existing employees or contractors.

"Technology is our strongest link, using it in the way we want to use it now in SAP Education would mean bringing everyone in a SAP class together in one virtual room. We want to bring this innovation to the large corporates so we can up skill their employees and also create a door of opportunity to contractors or consultants to up skill themselves so they can be more valuable and be a part of this great technology SAP in the process. Our portal will essentially house discussion forums, online storage briefcases, instant messaging (so work/private email is not affected), video streaming lessons (for those that missed a class lesson) with notes thereof, a fully automated lecture/class registration facility and so much more,"announced Wade Martin, Chief Executive and Founder of The Weram Group International.

"SAP is growing by the day and is being adopted by major businesses all over the world.

"Traditional means of SAP training had probably little impact on learners of that course as most of the courses are held only inside the classroom for the duration of the course. Most learners don't have access to out of course assistance and guidance. Some don't have access to certain notes or material conducted in a typical traditional class session. SAP Synergy changes all this. Our aim is to educate learners and ensure we provide a sound base of understanding even after the classroom-based course has finished. We provide a platform that all learners that attended the class, may conveniently access their notes, streamed media etc from any internet connection (for an allocated time). We add value to the South African economy by providing a premier consulting service that delivers skills, knowledge and education in a practical and affordable manner with the best skills and expertise.
