Thanks for your useful review ...

# I am working in IT/Telecommunication Department and my company want to launch ERP SAP that will be under our management supervision ( IT/TELECOM), and due to the lack of this specialist I want to study master focus on ERP/SAP in some modules. (( I mentioned all these information in my Career Plan Essay)).

In below paragraph ( the last paragraph in my essay); I did mentioned my undergraduate degree and many projects I participate in and also some online courses that I completed at openSAP Portal.

My bachelor's degree in Telecommunication and my professional experience with my current company, finalizing many ICT projects, participation in SAP business Suite SAP S/4 HANA in Nutshell course, my successfully completion of Introduction to SAP HANA Administration, openSAP.com courses, In addition, recently I participate in intelligent ERP SAP S/4 HANA Cloud and other similar ones can help me achieve these courses successfully.

Hi I think you gave a very comprehensive essay on the courses you choose. However, adding to Holt's comments, I think instead of putting your background in the bottom, it is better to put it in the beginning along with a short correlation of the purpose of taking this degree to your main vision.

The flow of the essay also needs a bit of work particularly in the last paragraph. You might want to add as to how the three have commonalities and differences.

I wish you luck!
