Overview

ITIL Version 3 training course is an update to the best practice guidance of the IT Infrastructure Library. Known as ITIL v3, the books are framed around the Service Lifecycle, taking a holistic approach to managing services and delivering business value. All of the core processes and concepts from ITIL v2 remain in ITIL v3 with updates to address emerging trends. New processes are in response to requests from the practitioner community. All processes have been grouped into the appropriate volume, reflecting their business value in the Service Lifecycle:

  • Service Strategy
  • Service Design
  • Service Transition
  • Service Operation
  • Continual Service Improvement

The course features lectures, discussion, team exercises, and quizzes. Participants will also earn 18 Project Management Institute (PMI) Professional Development Units.

Course Objectives:
This course introduces the key concepts of each ITIL v3 function, process and lifecycle stage. By the end of this course, the participants will be able to identify:

  • The stages and processes within the Service Lifecycle
  • Business value of implementing each process in an organization
  • Objectives and basic concepts related to each process
  • Activities and roles involved in each process
  • Relationship of each process to other processes
  • Terminology, techniques and practical approaches

Instructors:
Our instructors have years of hands-on IT practitioner experience, enabling them to effectively intertwine theory and real life stories and scenarios. Using the highest quality content, this training style encourages active group participation, allowing all participants to gain a wealth of practical knowledge.

Certification:
The certification in ITIL v3 Foundation is earned by achieving a passing score on a 60 minute, 40 question exam administered on the final day of class.
