The IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL®) is the de facto international standard framework for best practices in IT Service Management. ITIL® contains a comprehensive description of the processes involved in managing IT infrastructures. Right from the start, certification of professionals has been a key element in the ITIL® approach.
Target groupITIL® is relevant to anyone involved in the delivery or support of IT services. Whether you are managing day-to-day IT services or establishing and refining existing processes, ITIL® can help you apply internationally proven best practice-based standards to the IT services and support you provide.
EXIN is a founding member of the international ITIL® certification board, together with the UK Office of Government Commerce (OGC) and the IT Service Management Forum UK (itSMF). EXIN has played a major role in the certification of professionals in IT Service Management worldwide, by offering and modernizing the Foundation, Practitioner and Manager's Certificates in IT Service Management in over ten languages. ITIL® v2/v3ITIL® version 3, the successor of ITIL® version 2 was introduced in conjunction with the publication of the new ITIL® literature at the end of May 2007. New exams have now also been developed since the publication of the new literature. The introduction of version 3 does not mean that ITIL® version 2 will immediately be discarded. While version 2 is primarily geared towards the description and control of processes – which is currently a major requirement in the majority of IT organizations – version 3 focuses on the results that can be achieved when the processes are ready (the services). Only a handful of organizations have reached this level of maturity. Consequently, exam candidates can continue to sit the current version 2 IT Service Management Foundation exam (based on ITIL®) (ITILF) until the end of 2008.
