Let me be specific.
Do you have any training course on -Ariba Administration for Procurement?
If not, I am surprised that you don't have a course available on an important aspect of implementation.
I think though Ariba is a SAP company, Ariba is not open like SAP.
SAP has online HELP portal and also have the 'config guides' and other important documents available through SAP OSS ID
When you Ariba connect is only for licensed users and partners, you neglected 'independent' consultants in the market and closed door on them
