ITIL® Courses

ITIL® is a globally recognised framework for IT Service Management (ITSM) that helps organisations design, deliver, support and continually improve technology-enabled services.

If you’re new to ITIL®, we recommend starting with ITIL® 5 Foundation.

If you already hold ITIL® 4 Foundation, the ITIL® Foundation Bridge (Version 5) course provides the quickest route to updating your certification.

If your organisation currently operates within an ITIL® 4 environment, ITIL® 4 Foundation may still be the most appropriate option.

ITIL® 5 builds upon the foundations of ITIL® 4 and introduces additional guidance around digital products and services, governance, customer experience, value streams and AI-enabled service management.

All PeopleCert Business and IT certifications must be renewed within three years of their original certification date.

There are two ways in which you can renew your certification:

• You can upgrade to PeopleCert’s Plus Plan membership to gain access to the Continuous Professional Development (CPD) program, which allows you to maintain your certifications by logging CPD points for daily professional activities.
• Alternatively, you can keep your certifications current by attending another course and passing an exam within the same Product Suite before your certification’s renewal date.
