With the widespread popularization and application of information technology, society and enterprises have an increasing demand for information talents. However, there is a shortage of compound talents who know business, management and technology in China. According to the estimation of Hou Binghui, an ERP expert and professor of Tsinghua University, there are only 1,000 qualified ERP implementation consultants in China at present, which is only a drop in the bucket compared with hundreds of thousands of domestic enterprises that need informatization.

ERP talents are mainly employed in three directions.

First join a software company and engage in software implementation;

The second is to work in software application units to improve the efficiency of users' software use;

Third, we should set up our own company to provide software consulting and implementation services as a bridge between software companies and users. In the next few years, China will need a large number of third-party companies specializing in software consulting and implementation services.
