Thirty-four SAP@GSU Students volunteered to assist with meeting logistics at the recent ASUG Atlanta Chapter meeting on September 18.  The location was The Coca-Cola Company, One Coca-Cola Plaza, Atlanta. Student volunteers helped with set-up, registration, and directing attendees to educational break-out sessions. This was an excellent opportunity for IS Majors and IS Minors to network with representatives from SAP user companies.

SAP user company representatives stopped by the Georgia Southern table and learned about our university, our colleges, and especially our SAP@GSU program. Some of the companies in attendance were ADP, Capgemini, Coca-Cola, The Home Depot, JDC Group, IntelliCorp, Paymetric, McKesson, Readsoft, Zieta, Cisco, Georgia-Pacific, Delta Air Lines, Meridian Partners, Morris Communications Company, Newell Rubbermaid and Ryder.

The next Georgia Chapter ASUG meeting will be held Friday, January 22, 2010 at Georgia-Pacific in Atlanta. Check this page as we get closer to this event for more details and an opportunity to volunteer.

The Americas' SAP Users' Group (ASUG) got its start in the very early 1990’s when a group of long-time SAP customers were compelled to get together and to share their experiences and learn from each other about their use of SAP. One day in late 1991, they decided to launch a user group. We weren’t very sophisticated back then - we had no Website, no e-mail ... The one thing we did have was a shared passion for SAP, so everything clicked. From our origins connecting users face-to-face in small meetings, we have expanded into a year round community, with thousands of opportunities for members to share their stories with each other. Over ASUG’s short 17 year history of connecting SAP customers and partners with each other, it’s become an ongoing cycle of shared experience that continues to create real advantage for the entire SAP community. And it’s our job to not only make those connections possible, but to make them interesting and fun and to ensure that everyone gains an advantage from the exchange.
