On Wednesday, April 16, 2025 – the Research and Community Service Office (Kantor Penelitian dan Pengabdian Masyarakat / KPPM) of JIU hosted an engaging and insightful workshop titled SAP Overview.

Held from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, the event featured Mr. Young Choul Kim—also known as Peter Kim—as the keynote speaker. Mr. Kim is an Information System Manager specializing in SAP ERP at PT Hyundai AutoEver Indonesia.

With years of experience in the field, Mr. Kim brought the complex world of SAP down to earth for JIU students. His interactive approach and clear explanations helped students grasp the basics and understand how this powerful enterprise software operates in real-world business environments. The session offered a unique opportunity for students to hear directly from someone working at the forefront of technology integration in a major global company.

Throughout the workshop, Mr. Kim not only shared insights into the structure and functionality of SAP but also emphasized its relevance in today’s job market. Students were eager to ask questions during the Q&A session, sparking lively discussions about career paths, industry demands, and the role of digital tools in streamlining operations.
