Hi,

EhP4 means enhancement package 4 and is a collection of upgrade files for the SAP system. Some things in FI/CO could change, while some other are the same as in previous versions. Check first if the course contains ALL you must know or whether it is only a delta training course, which means that you´ll have to assist to SAP ERP 2005 or SAP ERP 6.0 first (with additional costs).

EhP4 will put you on the vanguard in the job market but it has the disadvantage that very few companies will be working with it. It takes very long till companies decide to upgrade to EhP4 (my experience).

You better call an expert at SAP Education for asking your questions but you could start with:

Management Accounting with SAP ERP 2005

Financial Accounting with SAP ERP 2005
