How it works

Don't just learn the platform. Become project-ready.

Training sells hours. Readiness answers a different question: can you do this work on a real project? Every programme runs the same four stages — end to end, not a pile of videos.

  1. 01

    Diagnose

    A short readiness diagnostic maps your current skills against the role you want. You get a gap map, not a score out of 100.

  2. 02

    Learn

    Live, instructor-led sessions on weekday evenings and weekends, written from real project delivery — what the platform actually does, and where teams get it wrong. Recordings for every enrolled learner.

  3. 03

    Build

    Scenario labs with acceptance criteria: artefact reviews, error triage, model critiques and hands-on work on trial tenants and 3AI's own sandbox systems.

  4. 04

    Prove

    Round-wise interview preparation, certification-aligned practice sets and a readiness assessment you can talk through with your mentor.

Hands-on labs & platform access

You will build, not watch.

Every module ends in a lab with acceptance criteria. Three kinds, so you are never blocked by a trial tenant that has expired or a feature it does not include.

Example lab · Datasphere

A remote table on S/4HANA is timing out at month-end.

Diagnose whether the constraint is federation, network or source capacity; decide between staying federated, snapshot or delta replication; write the one-paragraph justification you would send the client's architect.

  • Guided labs

    Every session

    Artefact reviews, error triage, model critiques and sequencing exercises drawn from live projects. No system needed — you learn to read a landscape the way an architect does.

  • Trial-tenant labs

    Included

    We walk you through provisioning SAP Datasphere and SAP Analytics Cloud trials and Databricks Free Edition, then run structured builds on them with acceptance criteria.

  • 3AI sandbox access

    Scheduled slots

    Source-system work on 3AI's own SAP ECC on HANA sandbox — CDS views, extraction and delta scenarios you cannot practise on a trial tenant. Capacity-limited and booked per cohort.

What you'll build

Leave with artefacts, not a certificate of attendance.

Every programme ends with work you can show in an interview. Founding-cohort builds will appear here as learners complete them.

  • Datasphere

    A governed space with replication flows, an analytic model and row-level access controls, documented for handover.

  • SAP Analytics Cloud

    A planning story on a live Datasphere model — versions, data actions and a predictive scenario.

  • Databricks

    A medallion pipeline from SAP extracts to a Unity Catalog-governed gold layer, with a cost-aware job schedule.

  • Architecture

    A BW → BDC migration blueprint: sequencing, risks, capacity-unit estimate and the client-facing narrative.

Meet your practitioners

Learn from practitioners, not just trainers.

3AI Academy is powered by 3AI Technologies. Your mentors work across SAP Datasphere, Business Data Cloud, SAP Analytics Cloud, Databricks, Azure and enterprise AI on live landscapes in pharma, manufacturing, oil & gas and FMCG — and the curriculum is written from that work, not from documentation.

Forward Deployed Engineer

The role Indian IT is reorganising around.

A Forward Deployed Engineer sits with the client and builds AI inside their environment, rather than demonstrating it from the outside. TCS has said publicly it will convert 1–1.5% of its associates into forward-deployed AI engineers, and the AI companies that invented the model keep hiring for it.

There is no shortage of courses teaching generic Gen AI engineering. There is almost nothing teaching how to put that work inside a client’s SAP estate — past the security review, under change control, with data governance intact. That is the gap we teach.

Two things we will not tell you

That a course makes you an FDE — most postings ask for three or more years of experience. And that it is worth a particular salary — the figures circulating online come overwhelmingly from people selling FDE courses, and the measured averages in India are materially lower. We teach the skills. We do not sell the number.

Students & graduates

Two programmes built for people starting out.

The flagship pathway assumes years of SAP behind you. These do not. They start at “what is a database” and end with a governed pipeline, a working Gen AI application and a portfolio an interviewer can open — plus the professional habits that decide whether a fresher survives their first six months on a project.

Part-time · online3rd & 4th year students

Campus to Consultant

250 hours across 29 weeks, alongside college. SQL, Python, data modelling, APIs and API management, Power BI and SAP Analytics Cloud, Databricks, the SAP data stack, Gen AI applications, and shipping them into a client environment with containers and CI/CD.

FAQ

The questions people ask before they enrol.

Is the training live or recorded?+

Live and instructor-led, over Zoom/Teams — 1–1.5 hours on alternate weekday evenings after office hours, plus one 1–2 hour weekend session. Every session is recorded and available to enrolled learners for the duration of the programme plus 90 days.

What if I miss a session?+

Watch the recording, complete the lab, and bring questions to the next session or the weekly doubt-clearing slot. Batches are capped at 15 so nobody falls through the gaps.

What system access do I get?+

Guided setup of SAP Datasphere and SAP Analytics Cloud trial tenants and Databricks Free Edition, plus scheduled slots on 3AI's SAP ECC on HANA sandbox for source-system labs. Where a programme needs more, we say so up front.

What are the prerequisites?+

Datasphere, SAC and BDC assume working experience on any SAP data or reporting stack (BW, BOBJ, HANA, S/4 reporting). Databricks for SAP Teams assumes SQL comfort; Python is taught from the ground up. SAP Joule for Consultants is open to any SAP consultant, functional or technical — no AI background needed; hands-on sessions run on 3AI's own SAP Joule for Consultants subscription, so you do not need a licence of your own — and we show you how your organisation activates it through SAP AI Units.

Does this include certification?+

Each programme is aligned to the published certification blueprint and includes practice sets written from it. The exam voucher is purchased separately from SAP or Databricks. We do not use or sell exam dumps, and we do not promise pass rates.

What is the refund and cancellation policy?+

Programmes — cancel any time up to the end of the first week (through the second live session) for a full refund, no deductions, or move to a later batch at no cost — we would rather you try it than guess. After the first week the fee is not refundable, but you may transfer once to the next batch of the same programme, seats permitting.

Bundles — the same windows apply to the bundle as a whole. Once you are past the first week of the first programme, the remaining programmes are non-refundable but transferable as above.

₹199 Masterclass — non-refundable. It is credited in full against any programme fee if you enrol within 72 hours of attending.

If we cancel or reschedule — if 3AI Academy cancels a batch or changes its dates and the new dates do not work for you, you get a full refund or a free transfer.

Refunds go back to the original payment method within 5–7 working days of approval. To request one, email academy@3aitechnologies.com from the address you enrolled with, quoting your payment reference.

Can I pay in installments?+

Yes. Every programme and bundle can be paid in three monthly installments at no extra cost — the first at enrolment, the next two 30 and 60 days later, each paid from your dashboard with a reminder a few days before. You get full course access from the first payment. Bank EMI through Razorpay is also available if you prefer to pay in full and spread it with your card issuer.

Is EMI available?+

Yes — Razorpay offers card EMI and select cardless EMI options at checkout; eligibility and interest are set by your bank, not by us. The refund policy is unchanged for EMI purchases.

Is there a job or placement guarantee?+

No. We prepare you to be project-ready — technical depth, architecture judgement, client-facing skills and interview practice. Hiring decisions belong to employers, and we would rather be honest about that than sell you a promise.

How does the ₹199 masterclass work?+

A 90-minute live session on one topic from a flagship programme, with a short readiness diagnostic. If you enrol in any programme within 72 hours, the ₹199 is credited against your fee.

Can my company enrol a team?+

Yes. We run corporate training as well — cohort licences in the public programmes, private cohorts for your team, bench-readiness programmes and custom curriculum. See the Corporate training section above, or write to academy@3aitechnologies.com and an architect will set up a conversation.
