About us

In 2005 SAPPHIR IT & Management Training GmbH was founded by Gerhard Jurasek and SAPPHIR IT & Management Consulting GmbH focussing on SAP training and seminars for the development personal competences in Graz.

History

Everything started with the business area SAP training. Our consultants and trainers work for the subsidiaries of the German software company SAP in Germany, Switzerland and Netherlands from the beginning. The business area “seminars for personal competence” was launched one year later and offers seminars for memory training, speed reading, voice training and stress management.

The business area SAP training is very international and expanded over the years to other countries like Belgium, UK, Austria, Sweden, France, Finland and Turkey. The export quota of our services is around 90 percent.

Since 2012 we offer also  SAP consulting. This field was covered before exclusively by SAPPHIR IT & Management Consulting GmbH in Vienna. In 2013 SAPPHIR becomes a member of „Leitbetriebe Österreich“, an organization of leading Austrian companies. This requires a certification proving the fulfillment of various criteria related to company development, sustainability and success.

In 2015 we expand our SAP business to Malaysia, Portugal and South Africa, in 2016 to India. Meanwhile SAPPHIR is active in 15 countries. In the same year we move to new premises in the East of Graz.
In 2019 we start to build an own video studio, which is continuously improved and enhanced.
In 2021 the cooperation with SAP is expanded from training to consulting.
