The Young Professional Program is a free initiative delivered by the SAP Training and Development Institute. The program, which lasts for 3 months, is designed to give recent graduates the certifications and soft skills required to begin a career as an SAP Associate Consultant. After the successful completion of the program, SAP works very closely with the YPP graduates to introduce them to a host of opportunities with SAP customers and partners.

So far and since the beginning of launching the program, ITA and SAP trained 125 jobseekers, 95% of which got employed in different government and private entities including Oman Aviation Group, German Embassy, Omantel, PDO and Awaser.

It is worth to mention that this training program is part of the range of training projects implemented by the Digital Society Development Division at ITA in cooperation with the leading and pioneering ICT companies such as SAP, Microsoft and Oracle. Through these training programs, ITA aims at boosting individuals’ capabilities and unlocking youth potentials in ICT as well as to contributing to create more and better job opportunities for fresh graduates and jobseekers.
