Purpose of Membership

With an ASUG Company membership, all individuals within the organization have access to member benefits for a 12-month term. All individuals must register with their company email to gain access to ASUG.com.

Through chapters and special interest groups (SIGs), year-round online educational programming, hands-on training, face-to-face events, and multiple channels of influence, we connect our members to the people and information they need to keep their careers and companies moving forward.

Our mission is to facilitate education and connections in the SAP ecosystem and to continually expand our community, bound together by real experience, to educate, influence, and enable business results and achieve real competitive advantage for all our members.
