ITIL® CSI: Continual Service Improvement Course

AXELOS has confirmed Global Knowledge was the leading provider of certified ITIL training and exams in 2017 across their 1,500 global partners

In this course, you will be immersed in the overall concepts, processes, policies, and methods associated with the continual service improvement (CSI) phase of the service lifecycle. You will learn about managing and controlling the activities and techniques within the CSI stage, not the details of each of the supporting processes.

This course positions you to successfully complete the associated exam, which is offered on the last day of class at 3:00 pm for classroom students. Virtual students will receive a voucher for a webcam proctored exam which they can schedule at their convenience. Beginning on March 5^th, 2018, students will receive their course materials through a link in their MyGK account. This is a BYOD course. Students can download their course materials and view them on a tablet/iPad or a PC/Mac.

Please note: The ITIL Foundation certification is required to take the exam at the end of class. Proof of certification must be provided no later than the first day of class.
