Hello SAP MM trainers,I am a SAP MM consultant working for MNC in Hyderabad, India and have good experience in domain and SAP MM. I am being forced by my company’s client to show them my SAP MM certification. Now my company is insisting me to write the certification exam. I can write the exam without going to SAP certified institute as my company is SAP partner, but I am not confident that I will pass the exam. As I am working odd hours and family commitment, I do not want to go to SAP certified institute. I am looking for a trainer who is experienced in real life projects (not a full time trainer with bookish knowledge) and certified in SAP MM and willing to train me in couple of weeks so that I can pass the certification in first attempt. Please email sapmmexam@gmail.com
