Introduction to the ITIL Framework


95-812

Units: 6

Description

The IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) framework is a systematic and proven model to maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of IT service provision. ITIL covers all phases of the service lifecycle from strategy generation to continuous improvement. This course covers all five service lifecycle stages and their attendant processes, and prepares students to take the ITIL Foundations certification exam.

Actual ITIL implementation techniques and methods - and real world successes and failures - are reviewed. In the dynamic and complex environment of IT operations, ITIL has proven to be one of the singular mainstays of best practice and has been declared as the ISO/IEC 20000 standard for IT process frameworks.

  • Foundational knowledge of all five phases of the service lifecycle: Service Strategy, Service Design, Service Transition, Service Operations, and Continual Service Improvement
  • Introduction to common Key Performance Indicators (KPI) to measure process and service performance
  • Introduction to various “real world” case studies and examples of ITIL being applied to systems, processes, and organizations within the commercial and Government sectors
