In response to customer demand, Xpertise has launched a full Service Management portfolio to enable organisations to realise the benefits that can be gained from the cost effective delivery of IT Services.

Bill Walker, Commercial Director at Xpertise commented: “Wherever there is a customer and a provider, there is a need for SERVICE MANAGEMENT. With an IT related service, the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) provides a best practice guide to delivering IT services - IT SERVICE MANAGEMENT. With the current pressures on IT budgets and staffing levels, it is essential that the best possible service can be provided which in turn will improve customer satisfaction and retention.”

A total of nine new courses are being introduced to provide one of the most comprehensive portfolios on the market.

The following four courses lead to the ISEB Foundation and the ISEB Certificate in IT Service Management:
- ITIL Foundation
- ITIL Service Support
- ITIL Service Delivery
- ITIL Exam Preparation

All courses and trainers are fully accredited by the BCS/ISEB through Opsys-SM2.

Where certification is not required the following courses provide as structured overview of IT Service Management:
- ITIL Overview for Managers
- ITIL Overview for Technicians
- ITIL Essentials
- ITIL Service Level Management
- ITIL Service Desk

Bob Bradley, Chief Executive of Xpertise said “This further extension of our course portfolio reinforces our position as the UK’s leading supplier of accredited training for IT professionals. No longer do major organisations have to shop around to find the range of courses they need for their IT teams – through our partnerships with Microsoft, IBM, Novell, Citrix, Lotus and Oracle, we can meet most requirements through our own schedule without having to act as a broker in the way many of our competitors do. The breadth and depth of our portfolio and our strong geographic presence is unrivalled!”
