I have received a number of requests and questions regarding training for SAP Enterprise Product Development (EPD). It is nice to see continued and increasing interest in this public Cloud extension of SAP’s Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solution, so I wanted to provide an overview, how you can stay up-to-date.
