SAP HXM Power-User Training
Join SuperNova for industry-focused, job-oriented training designed to level up your career in SAP HXM SuccessFactors — 40 hours, a limited batch of 20 seats, starting 1st October.
Program Overview
Learn the skills. Prepare for opportunities. Build your SAP career.
The SAP HXM Power-User Training is an intensive, hands-on program for anyone who wants to build a career around SAP SuccessFactors. Across 40 hours you move from clicking around the system to confidently owning the full HR cycle: hiring, employee data, time, payroll, self-service, and reporting.
Every session is delivered by industry-focused trainers who work on real SAP HXM projects, and every module is practical and job-oriented — you practise on a live-like SuccessFactors tenant rather than watching slides. That makes it a strong fit for graduates and career starters as well as HR professionals moving into SAP.
Seats are deliberately limited to 20 so every participant gets trainer time. More chance to be selected, because every organization needs skillful people.
