Re: Anyone here ITIL certified?
Yes I'll be taking the Foundations V3. That's likely as far as I'll need to go. Any tips for a newbie?
What I mean about the value is, yes it seems to be the current management program du jour and it looks good on a resume, but how many companies have actually implemented it fully? And of those that have, what cost savings/process improvements/increased efficiencies actually materialized? |

I have also been researching as I am allotted money for training on a yearly basis and I thought about this or going for my CCNP. |

It is fairly new in the states, but has been implemented with a lot of success in Europe and Canada for many years.
Companies here absolutely are implementing it. My company has adopted it, going so far is to get ISO 20000 registered.
When implemented properly it has huge benefits and cost savings.
I think foundations is valuable for anyone in IT. If nothing else is provides a good methodology to looking at how IT works.
I think ITIL is here to stay. |
