This ITIL 4 Foundation certification class is the first course in the ITIL 4 certification scheme and is a prerequisite for all other ITIL 4 courses. This course provides the fundamentals to embed ITIL into your day-to-day work practices.

Services are the main way that organizations create value for themselves and their customers. Almost all services today are IT-enabled, which means there is tremendous benefit for organizations in creating, expanding and improving their IT service management (ITSM) capability.

ITIL 4 provides organizations with a comprehensive framework for ITSM. ITIL 4 brings ITIL 4 up to date by re-shaping much of the established ITSM practices in the wider context of customer experience, value streams, and digital transformation, as well as embracing new ways of working, such as Lean, Agile, and DevOps.  

This 16-hour certification course introduces learners to the management of modern IT-enabled services, provides them with an understanding of the common language and key concepts, and shows them how they can improve their work and the work of their organization with ITIL 4 guidance.
