Information Technology Infrastructure Library
Course Description
In recent times, unplanned system downtime is not caused by technology, but by people and process issues. It is vital that enterprises augment technology with skilled IT staff that are using best practice IT Service Management processes.
The Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) is a set of practices for IT service management (ITSM) that focuses on aligning IT services with the needs of business. ITIL describes processes, procedures, tasks and checklists that are not organization-specific, used by an organization for establishing integration with the organization’s strategy, delivering value and maintaining a minimum level of competency. It allows the organization to establish a baseline from which it can plan, implement, and measure. It is used to demonstrate compliance and to measure improvement.
