Course Duration: 5 Day


Course Code: ITILSS


Course Description:


This programme is made up of two separate 5-day training courses, followed by a revision day. Publicly scheduled as a non-residential event. Each course can be booked separately from our public schedule. The two courses together lead to the formal ISEB Manager's Certificate in IT Service Management.

 

This is an intensive training programme, designed for those with at least five years relevant experience of IT and the Service Management disciplines. The course is based upon the OGC's IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) publications “Best Practice for Service Support” (the blue book) and “Best Practice for Service Delivery” (the red book). Copies of these publications are included in the price of the course.

 

The programme of courses is scheduled to lead up to the ISEB examinations, which are held quarterly, at the end of January, April, July and October.

 

Since their introduction in 1991, the IT Service Management certificates offered by the Information Systems Examination Board (ISEB), part of the British Computer Society, and Stichting EXIN, the Dutch Examination Institute, have become the de-facto professional qualifications recognised throughout the world.

 

This training and qualification will assist in enabling the candidates to offer a significant and effective contribution in implementing IT Service Management within their own organisations.

 

The courses are delivered by ISEB/EXIN accredited consultants, who will be on hand at all times during the course to offer practical advice and guidance and facilitate valuable discussion.


The courses contain a combination of:

- Lectures
- Tutorials
- Debates
- Assignments
- Mock examinations marked to ISEB/EXIN standards
- Registration for examinations

 

A comprehensive course manual is provided to all candidates, as well as the ITIL Service Support and ITIL Service Delivery books

 

The course focuses on relationships between the Service Management disciplines, presenting ITIL as an integrated set of processes.

 

ITIL has become the de facto standard for IT Service Management and for the IT Service Management professional this qualification is becoming a MUST.


Exam days are run by ISEB, the awarding body, four times a year as below. The exam registration process is "owned" by ISEB. Candidates can arrange this directly or we can facilitate it for you.
Our revision days are scheduled to precede the Practitioner exam dates.
 
NB: The certificate awarded after successful completion of th service delivery and service support courses is the - ISEB Manager's Certificate in IT Service Management
