# Roundup: Best SAP Cybersecurity Courses for Each Skill Level
Nov 19, '20 by Joerg Schneider-Simon
SAP cybersecurity professionals are in high demand. Really high demand. Ridiculously high demand.
As we noted back in 2018, there is a [major shortage of cybersecurity professionals](https://explore.bowbridge.net/blog/cybersecurity-skills-shortage-the-biggest-threat-to-sap-cybersecurity). So, if you’re an aspiring SAP cybersecurity professional, the best way to become one of the most valuable people in your organization – or the most sought-after candidate – is to ensure your SAP cybersecurity skills are up to date.
Fortunately, there are several excellent online courses for all skill levels. Whether you want to upgrade your cybersecurity skills, learn a new SAP system, or make a career move to specialize in cybersecurity, there are both live and on-demand courses available online to help you get there.
If you require SAP training certificates, you may want to select courses offered directly by SAP, whereas if you are looking to acquire real-world cybersecurity knowledge and training, you may want to look at courses offered by third-party companies.
