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.
— Danielle, IT Support Analyst
ITIL 4 provides organizations with a comprehensive framework for ITSM. ITIL 4 brings ITIL 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.

Terrific class, and some significant improvements from ITIL v3
ITSM Academy has put together a fantastic first class for ITIL 4. Many of the concepts, definitions, terminologies, and systems have been updated and improved since ITIL v3 2011. The class, exercises and courseware all worked really well to translate that information into a format that was very well received by the learners. The instructor did a great job of presenting the material, incorporating related frameworks (DevOps, Agile, Lean, etc) and answering questions, as always. I appreciate the opportunity to be part of this leading edge class!
