SAP/DSU Partnership Completes Initial Two-Week Training

DSU’s College of Business recently completed a critical step in becoming a Center of Excellence where faculty from other HBCUs will be trained on the advanced technologies of business software giant SAP SE.

The College recently completed a two-week training period for DSU faculty who will later conduct training sessions on campus for their academic counterparts from the other HBCUs.

In addition to the training, separate meetings were held to explain the SAP/DSU partnership to University administrators, Board of Trustees members, and community leaders and elected officials, including Judy Diogo, president of the Central Delaware Chamber of Commerce; James Waddington, director of Kent County Economic Development; U.S. Sen. Tom Carper, Dover Mayor Robin Christensen and State Reps. Harvey Kenton, Dave Wilson and Lyndon Yearick.

The SAP officials even took time to visit with students of the Early College High School to expand those youths’ horizons on the career possibilities in connection with SAP technologies.

SAP officials note that DSU’s work as a Center of Excellence will help to develop a capable workforce that will be skilled in SAP advanced technologies and available for hire in the SAP ecosystem – by company and others that use its technologies – immediately after college graduation.
