Technical-Oriented Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Body of Knowledge for Information Systems Programs: Content and Implementation

In this article, the author proposes a body of knowledge that the educators can use to incorporate the technical aspects of enterprise resource planning (ERP) into an information systems (IS) program, encapsulated as the ERP technical knowledge framework. To illustrate the application of this framework, the author discusses a course sequence that could be applied in a 4-year undergraduate degree program in ERP. The ERP technical knowledge framework provides an excellent starting point for IS instructors who attempt to expand their ERP courses or create a complete ERP program that will meet the needs of the industry.
