Giving the increasing role of I.T in achieving corporate aims, the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL®) was established to provide the foundation for quality I.T. service management (ITSM). It is a set of best-practices that describe procedures, tasks and checklists, which are not organization-specific, but can be used by any organizations to establish an internationally recognized level of competency. ITIL provides the foundation for quality ITSM through documented and proven processes that covers the entire Service Lifecycle which allows organizations to establish a baseline from which it can plan, implement, measure and improve in a well controlled and systematic way. This instructor-led course is specially designed for participants to attempt the ITIL Foundation Certificate level. It will introduce I.T. professionals to the ITIL V3 terminology, structure and basic concepts and an understanding of the I.T. Good Practice. Participants will understand how the 5 Service Lifecycles work, namely Service Strategy, Service Delivery, Service Transition, Service Operation and Continual Service Improvement, and the relationship between those Lifecycles.
