ITIL v3 Release, Control & Validation
ITIL v3 Release, Control & Validation
This course prepares you for the exam leading to the ITIL Intermediate Certificate: ITIL Release, Control & Validation. Also, this certification contributes four credits towards the “ITIL Expert” certification.
The ITIL Release, Control & Validation (RCV) module is one of the qualifications in the ITIL® Service Capability workstream. The module focuses on the practical application of RCV practices to enable the successful planning, testing, and implementation of new services that meet the organization’s or users’ needs.
This official ITIL capability certification course enables you to master the key ITIL processes needed to plan for service transitions properly; assess changes; build, test and deploy releases; validate changes before they go into production; evaluate the changes once they are in operation to ensure that the benefits have been realized while minimizing adverse effects; and transfer the right level of knowledge to the right people, through effective and efficient Configuration and Knowledge Management systems.
The ITIL Release, Control & Validation course is designed to develop organizations’ or individuals’ understanding of the ITIL Service Transition processes. It can ensure transitional changes are effectively managed, new services are validated and tested, and that release and deployment fulfill organizational requirements. ITIL Release, Control & Validation also guide evaluating change and managing knowledge to improve decision-making processes.
