This 2-1/2 day class is a detailed introduction to the concepts, terms, definitions, goals, benefits and relationships within the core IT service management processes and function, according to the ITIL® (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) best practice framework. Based on principles described in ITIL®'s Service Support and Service Delivery books, this course focuses on taking a holistic approach to IT Service Management through the use of processes, their respective relationships, and workflows. This course also prepares participants for the examination leading to the Foundation Certificate In IT Service Management, the prerequisite for the Practitioner and Service Manager levels of ITIL® certification. An independent examination body facilitates and marks the examination, which is scheduled on the last day of the course.

Built on the OGC Planning to Implement Service Management Book, this course is a response to frequent requests from Foundation students for more information on real life experience and practical guidance to implementing ITIL®. The primary object of the course is to develop a deeper understanding of ITSM and how to successfully deliver, participate in or support ITSM projects. This session bridges some of the gap between ITIL® Foundation and ITIL® Service Manger training.

Which ITIL® processes should your organization emphasize? If your company seeks to effect outstanding service and to enable that level of service, this workshop is designed to help you. With an emphasis on Service Level Management, Incident Management, Service Desk and Problem Management, participants will work through exercises to help them identify what to measure and the sources for collecting data. They will be guided in how to analyze and interpret that data and how to incorporate the measurements into the plan to improve service quality.
