I want to know what my friends who have completed their training are doing right now or planning to do ??

Need suggestions from experts from here what should we should after completing our articleship.

My training has completed two months before and now I m enjoying and chilling.

But I cant do this for a long time as my career part.

Waiting for my PCC May attempt result and I know after that I have to give time to my finals.

But it not seems enough- sitting at home, taking tuitions and prepare.

@ Pooja

Hai, go through the below link for SAP FICO Details to get an idea. I can say CA with SAP-FICO is the superb combination to get higher packages. Time being till the results, you learn this course, may be around 6 months and then apply for companies which have implemented SAP. CA with this course training will definitely makes you different from other Fresh CAs. FICO stands for FInancial COntrolling. SAP stands for Systems Applications and Products.

You can also consider doing Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) from ISACA, which is also the demanding course now a days, particularly in banks, which you might have heard the course name as so many people are doing. This course is also recognised worldwide. For details on this course refer below link. This course is an objective type exam purely. Already you have studied the IS Audit in Finals.. That will helps you.

You can consider doing Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) from The Institute of Internal Auditors, USA. This is also i guess to be fully objective type exam. This course is useful if you want your future in internal audit and if your interest is more in audit area. It has also worldwide recognition \. Refer below link for more details.

Hope above ideas will make ur career in right path in a bright manner.. All the best.

Dont do sap from any institute, after finishing companies will ask sap exp so its always better to do in companies itself where your work..The companies itself train you on sap and you get exp too.. After 2 years if you try some other companies you will get good position and with good package..

IF you want to do SAP FICO outside then you need to do from SAP company itself...

Now you can do CS,CWA,CFA(USA), CISA, CIA and some other courses...

@ Balu Sir

Doing SAP from SIEMENS Institute will helps but the course fee touches to almost a lakh. If one is ready, then undoubtedly SIEMENS coaching is the best option. I agree with your comment that sap experience is asked by many top companies today. So a fresher has to wait for some time. However, having learnt the SAP course i hope it will definitely makes us different in campus placements/outside interviews. Atleast we are having knowledge if not experience. In that way a student who learned this will be the first priority to corporates than giving training to them after they join the company..Pls correct me if i am wrong. In fact SIEMENS is the Authorised Institute to give SAP coaching.

SIEMENS does not provide any loan as per my view. For more details refer below link.
