Learning path for SAP BTP for an ABAP developer

[ManojYadav]

Dear All,

I am an ABAP developer. In my current organization, we are not yet on S4 HANA. It is planned in next 3-4 years. Currently we are on SAP NETWEAVER 7.5 and systems are on premise.

We have SAP BTP with Cloud foundry. We are also using Business application studio to develop Fiori Apps.

I want to learn SAP BTP.  Could you please suggest which of the learning path to take considering my current organization setup.

SAP BTP, Cloud Foundry runtime and environment 

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Manoj
