The qualification aims to demonstrate that IT Service Management (ITSM) professionals are equipped with essential skills to apply ITIL® concepts in their organization. At the same time, it’s designed to give confidence to managers that the members of their team are ready to initiate and successfully carry out required improvement initiatives.
The new ITIL Practitioner qualification and the accompanying guidance is a response to practitioners’ requests for additional, practical elements to complement the existing ITIL guidance.
While the ITIL Foundation qualification confirms a good understanding of what service management is and introduces all the relevant ITIL concepts and the language, the ‘how’ is addressed only very briefly. ITIL Practitioner comprises key skills for how to start adopting and adapting ITIL within the organization.
