Course details

ITIL is the internationally recognised framework for the delivery and support of cost-effective, high-quality IT services.

ITIL, which is established across thousands of organisations worldwide provides a robust foundation for IT service delivery and support and has been adopted by major technology organisations who all have developed their own adaptation of the framework.

ITIL has evolved since its inception in 1989 into a comprehensive framework that supports the entire lifecycle of service delivery and support, from service strategy to service operation, and continual service improvement. ITILv3, developed in 2007, is now closely aligned and integrated with other complementary standards and frameworks.

Introduction
