Interskill Learning Launches ITIL Curriculum
ATLANTA (June 1, 2007) Interskill Learning launches ITIL Online, an e-learning curriculum mapped to the ITIL Foundation Certificate. ITIL Online is specifically designed to prepare learners for the Information Systems Examinations Board (ISEB) Foundation Level Certificate in IT Service Management (ISEB qualifications are independent of provider and product, and are internationally recognized as the industry measure of best practice.)
"Unlike many of the current ITIL e-Learning products on the market today, ITIL Online is not merely an e-Book with page after page of text," said Interskill Learning's Vice President, Darren Surch. "The content is rich with interactive activities that engage the learner and encourage them to reflect on their own workplace experiences."About ITIL
ITIL (IT Infrastructure Library) is the most widely accepted approach to
IT Service Management (ITSM) in the world. ITSM is a holistic set of
disciplines that embrace People, Process, and Technology (Products), allowing
an organization to develop and deliver quality IT services. IT Service
Management defines processes and procedures for the delivery and support of
quality and cost effective IT services which underpin the business processes of
the organization. This holistic approach to ITSM is especially relevant when
you consider that People and Process, not the commonly assumed Technology, are
the cause of more than 80 percent of system downtime. (Gartner Group)
ITIL has enjoyed rapid, global adoption over the last few years because
it provides a cohesive set of best practice disciplines, drawn internationally
from the public and private sectors. It is supported by a comprehensive,
globally-recognized qualifications scheme, accredited training organizations,
and implementation and assessment tools.
Benefits of ITIL:
- Aligns the IT agenda with the needs of the business
- Moves IT from a technology-based culture to a customer service-based culture
- Increases a business' ability to absorb and respond effectively to rapid change
- Improves the quality of IT services
- Improves the perception of IT within an organization by demonstrating IT value
- Promotes efficiency and decreases misunderstandings by ensuring everyone speaks the same language
