Learning NewsQA

Be amongst the first to gain an IT Service Management Foundation qualification based upon the new version 3 of the IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL), with brand-new courses from QA-IQ. Running from the first week of June, the Foundation course will prepare delegates for the first available exams based on the new syllabus.

Delivered at QA-IQ’s premier training centres across the UK, the course is designed and developed by QA-IQ’s own expert instructors, all of whom are experienced IT Service Managers.

Jeff Payne, Head of QA-IQ’s Service Management Practice, explains; "Although the current version of ITIL is now widely accepted, it has not seen any major change since 2002. The world of IT is highly dynamic and in order to deserve its 'Best Practice' credibility ITIL needs to reflect this. The scope of the library has been widened to cover more aspects of Service Management and for the first time adopts a unified Lifecycle approach to the subject, helping the Business, IT managers and staff to understand their subject ‘from cradle to grave’. Importantly, ITIL v3 will also have a greater focus on understanding business drivers and how IT can assist with meeting business objectives.

"At QA-IQ we have significant experience of delivering Service Management training and consulting, and have developed a strong relationship with the British Computer Society – Information Systems Examinations Board, and the APM Group, the premier examining boards for ITIL-based qualifications. We will be using this expertise to ensure that our new ITIL v3 courses are delivered to the same high standards, leading to the same exemplary exam pass rates that our delegates have achieved in respect of ITIL v2 qualifications. As well as conventional-style courses, QA-IQ is also already able to offer an ITIL v3 version of its popular IT Service Management simulation ‘Polestar’."

With more courses scheduled for July and August, demand is already high from those keen to get an early understanding of this important new qualification. To book your place, contact QA-IQ on 0870 90 600 90 or email [email protected]. Visit www.qa-iq.com for more information.
