Knowledge never hurts. When it comes to being a SAP Basis Admin, more understanding you have as in how the the programmers write the code (not the syntax) and how it is executed in the system that you are responsible for maintaining, more effective you will be. A lot of times we have system errors that pertain to a programming error and then we need to run to the programmers for a better understanding.
Same goes with the Database and the OS. As a Basis resources, most probably you will be the first one (or atleast suppose to) to catch a glitch in the system. And once you find out something is not working fine, you need to drill down to where the problem resides, SAP (Basis), program, Db or the OS.
So yes, basic understanding of ABAP definitely help.
Also for those planning on taking HR module, ask if they teach COBRA(US insurance related benefits). That would give one an edge in HR module.

Guys,
Just to update you on SAP HR Module.
I spoke yesterday with one of my 12 th std classmate who did his BSc. comp sci (evening college) and MSc (comp. Sci) and who had and now is in USA for the last 12 years. 4 years ago he shifted to SAP SCM and is working for a top company in Dallas. When I asked him about SAP HR Module, this is what he had to tell me.
SAP HR Module is very hot right now in the market and that SAP BW is the worst module right now in recession time.
He told me to ask about Placements in any company teaching SAP.
When studying SAP, always prepare well at home before you go to class b'cos SAP teaching will be in the high end and if you donot follow what the instructors are telling, then everything will be spanish.
Get SAP access for 6 months and practice hard and sincere.
Get SAP certification.
cook up your resume to show 4 years of SAP experience.
Always be up to date on the FUNCTIONAL aspects of SAP HR Module as well as all the terms.
Never say SAP in an interview. Always say S-A-P (only the letters). if you say SAP, then it is a rejection on the spot.
SAP is well respected (and higher salary) in USA and Parts of Europe. For all the rest, you will be treated the same as Java, J2EE etc....
Ultimately one fool company from USA will hire you and they will put you on teh job.
The same fool company will see all the mistakes that you do and see that you donot know SAP HR even one bit.
The same fool company will give you about 2 month time before firing you.
With the 2 month experience in the fool company, cook up your resume to 4 years of hard core exp. at the same fool company.
Another company will hire you and if you are clever, you will suceed. Otherwise you will get the same exp. as the fool's company that hired you first.
ultimately, you will be a Guru in SAP and you will earn in 100 + $ each hour.
*******************************************************
My Plan :
I will be going to ERP TEK introduction class in Mississauga this coming saturday at 2:0 pm (CD's welcome to meet me there). there is another company known as MyERPPartners in Mississauga that has orientation / Introduction class on Sunday at 2:00 pm (I will attend not this sunday but the next one).
ERP TEK offers 1 classs free in a module. So I will attend one free class in SAP HR Module.
I will read SAP HR Module at home through the book.
I will enroll in SAP HR module with my EI benefits (in case it comes) or I will pay my own bill by taking a loan.
My thanks to Ani70 and kabatur12, who initiated me to look into SAP HR module and who showed me that SAP can be better than the $ 14 an hour salary that I was receiving even after 15 year experience.
Peace by TK

Hi TK, your friend has given you a very realistic and good advice.
Most common mistake is to join a course and expect you will learn everything from it, as your friend pointed out, these courses are very fast paced and high level.
You need to study on your own before joining the course and should definitely have SAP system access.
Without much system practice, chances of you being successful are slim, so spend a lot of time on system, according to me thats the key.
Best of luck.
