Itil-F-V3

Course details

It culminates in an optional one-hour multiple-choice examination for the Foundation Certificate in IT Service Management â€" Version 3 and is a pre-requisite for the further training in ITIL Version 3 that leads to the ITIL Diploma in IT Service Management.

The ITIL Framework is a source of good practice in service management. ITIL is used by organisations world-wide to establish and improve capabilities in service management. Service Management is a set of specialised organisational capabilities for providing value to customers in the form of services. The capabilities take the form of functions and processes for managing services over a lifecycle, with specializations in strategy, design, transition, operation, and continual improvement. The capabilities represent a service organisation's capacity, competency, and confidence for action. The act of transforming resources into valuable services is at the core of service management. Without these capabilities, a service organisation is merely a bundle of resources that by itself has relatively low intrinsic value for customers.
