Following the successful launch of ITIL® 4, with the higher modules from the Managing Professional and Strategic Leader streams establishing themselves in the market - AXELOS has taken the decision to stop offering the previous version of the World’s leading certification in IT Service Management, ITIL V3, by the end of 2021.
There will be a phased approach to discontinuing the Foundation and Intermediate examinations to allow you enough time to complete your ITIL V3 Intermediate level certifications, so you can accumulate enough credits to qualify for the Transition examination.
Please Note: The confirmed timings are as follows:
Our ITIL® Service Operation training course (SO) focuses on how you can deliver value to your customers and users by managing service operation processes and activities.
Our three-day Intermediate level Service Operation training course will help you to understand the IT Service Management (ITSM) processes and functions needed to keep IT services up and running in the most efficient and effective manner, including Incident, Problem, Access and Event Management plus Request Fulfilment process, plus the Service Desk. The training course will also explain how IT operations staff should be involved in processes which have their home in other parts of the ITSM Lifecycle, such as Change Management in Service Transition, and Service Level Management in Service Design.
The course concludes with a one and a half hour, scenario based, eight question multiple-choice exam, with the pass mark being 28/40 (70%).
You will be appropriately prepared for this by our ITIL® tutors throughout the course. Included in this preparation will be the opportunity to answer two practice exam papers, which will raise your confidence levels.
