Earning your ITIL 4 Foundation certification carries a lot of value. Armed with an understanding of the ITIL framework, you can better align IT with business objectives.

ITIL is the preeminent framework for managing IT service delivery around the world. ITIL 4 defines a Service Value System that prescribes specific practices and activities during the design, development, delivery, and support of IT services.

Since PeopleCert’s acquisition of the ITIL Body of Knowledge in 2021, they have worked to modernize, refine, and improve the guidance it provides so that businesses that adopt it facilitate better collaboration between IT and its stakeholders, experience greater user satisfaction when utilizing IT services, and deliver improved business outcomes. During that time, the certification program has continued to evolve to better align to the people doing the work, the roles they hold, and the types of practices they perform in the co-creation of value for the organization. We plan to discuss the value & benefits that ITIL certification brings to organizations, to describe the re-certification pathways of the recently announced recertification program, and to illustrate how you can leverage the modern components of the ITIL framework to grow your ITSM practice. We hope you’ll join us, along with our partners from Peoplesoft, for this robust discussion on the modern practices of the ITIL®4 framework, and how Skillsoft can help you implement them. Watch Now
