Simplified Access to SAP Learning Rooms

Based on your feedback, we have simplified the access to our SAP Learning Rooms. The new solution provides immediate access to all rooms for which you are eligible directly from the SAP Learning Room home page – with just one click. All that is needed is your one-time acceptance of the new terms of use before you access an SAP Learning Room. This acceptance authorizes you to access any of your SAP Learning Rooms.

In addition, we have updated the SAP Learning Room home page. You will now see a list of all accessible learning rooms, organized by subject areas. You can either expand the subject areas of interest for you to find relevant learning rooms or use the search entry field and get immediate access by clicking on the room title.

This simplified access also works from the Learning Content page: open a learning room from the content area by just using the access link – no need to wait for a Registration.

Rethinking the User Interface

Public cloud users of SAP Learning Hub can now use learninghub.sap.com to access and navigate the platform. The intention is to enhance navigation in a more simplified and organized fashion.

Enter the home page, click “Login” and take a look around. Direct access to the learning content, SAP Learning Rooms, and Learning Journeys section will be easy to find under the three prominent icons. Also, be sure to scroll down to the resources section for extra information that you would expect to find on the home space. We recommend that you bookmark the page as your new gateway to SAP Learning Hub.

We are working on an enhanced navigation for private cloud users and other editions, too, so stay tuned!

The Future of Learning – Top 7 Predictions for 2030

How will your learning experience change?

The distinction between formal and informal learning will become obsolete. All your learning activities will be tracked and actively supported by virtual agents; every action will be put into a meaningful learning context; and you will be given choices based on your individual potential to reach the next level. Our learning platform will be so engaging, you won’t want to miss it, even for leisure activities such as sports, arts, or learning a new language.

Read more about the prediction for learning in 2030 in the thought leadership article by Stefan Haenisch, head of SAP Knowledge Transfer and Education.
