Aradhana Potteth, a Senior SAP Consultant at LTIMindtree, who was part of the inaugural batch, shared her experience, "The program structure challenges you to apply yourself in the real-world rather than just theoretical knowledge. My program leader helped me to understand the concepts quickly, and the office hours are wonderful and interactive! The program is self-paced, which was the reason I was inclined to join the program. It’s entirely online so I can do it from anywhere at my own time. The curriculum keeps you on your toes and helps apply what you learn very effectively. I found a wonderful set of batchmates in this program from a variety of industries and years of experience - networking at its best!"
