Welcome to openSAP Invites! I’m your host, Elisabeth Riemann, and in this teaser episode, we’ve invited the founder of openSAP, Clemens Link, to talk to us about SAP’s free learning platform. We talk about what inspired him to create openSAP in 2013, the importance and benefits of MOOCs, and new complementary learning offerings in the form of microlearning and podcasts.  

Discover background knowledge about openSAP, hear about the people working behind the scenes, and learn about the numbers that motivate, excite, and help us to learn more about the openSAP community.
