Course Code: QASMSD

Course Description:

Service Delivery constitutes part two of the four stage Manager's certificate programme. Prior to attending this course delegates must have successfully completed The Service Support course before going on to sit the Service Support and Service delivery 3 hour exams.

This course provides comprehensive in-depth training in delivering IT services. It is accredited by, and follows the syllabus specified by the Information Systems Examination Board of the British Computer Society (http://www.iseb.org.uk/) and forms one half of the training leading to the examinations for the ISEB Managers Certificate in IT Service Management (the other half being Service Support). The Foundation Certificate in IT Service Management is a prerequisite for this course and qualification.

The course covers the entire scope of the IT Infrastructure Library® (ITIL®) Service Delivery publication as formulated by the UK Office of Government Commerce (OGC) in detail and provides extensive case study based group exercises to reinforce how to apply the knowledge gained.

ITIL® provides a vendor and technology independent set of best practice around how to manage IT services in the most efficient and effective way. It is rapidly becoming globally accepted as a starting point for service improvement and is supported by an associated British (soon to be ISO) Standard; BS15000. More information can be found at: http://www.ogc.gov.uk/resource_toolkit.asp
