Remembrance Day, also known as Veterans Day here in the US, is on November 11. And we at SAP Experts Podcast are celebrating by highlighting the journeys of two veterans who have transitioned from a military career to an SAP career. We also talk about the SAP veterans to work initiatives, and the how they help ease this transition.

My first guest, Jason Duarte is currently a Senior Sales Strategy and Operations Analyst at SAP Concur and has been with SAP for over 6 years, having previously worked as the Business Network Value Analyst at SAP Ariba.

He is passionate about helping veterans transition, and enabling employers to recognize the value they offer, having himself served 5 ½ years in the US marines.

My next guest Shaquille Charles has been a Combat Medic for the Army across various locations and leadership roles for the last 8 ½ years. He is now set to begin employment at SAP by the end of the month, as a customer relations associate.

Last, but definitely not the least, my guest, Christine Aboud, is the co-owner and CEO of of St. Michael’s Learning Academy (SMLA), which provides military-focused educational programs, that have, over 8 years, helped hundreds of veterans reintegrate into the civilian workforce by providing training in high demand skills like project management and SAP ERP systems.

As always, my name Akshi Mohla, and you’re listening to SAP Experts Podcast.
