ITIL Foundation

What is an ITIL FOUNDATION?

In an ITIL certification program, ITIL Foundation is the first certification that individuals can obtain. ITIL Foundation is an entry-level certification that provides eligibility to individuals that have demonstrated a specific level of knowledge about terms, processes, and other aspects of ITIL. Because an ITIL Foundation offers the core inputs in ITIL, it is intended as a framework to set the stage and prepare the individual for higher-level ITIL certifications.

Why Pursue ITIL FOUNDATION Certification?

Today’s industry has given importance to professional certifications, and as such, has grown significantly in lieu with increased development of the different areas covered in the Information Technology field. ITIL, or the Information Technology Infrastructure Library, is a set of best practices designed to define common approach methods that organizations can use to their respective daily operations as executed by Information Technology organizations. The current version of ITIL provides a series of professional certifications designed to attest to an individual’s level of capability in specific aspects that ITIL covers, or to determine an individual’s level of capability in the overall set of ITIL methods and techniques.

And as with many professional certifications, building a precise value to both organizations and professionals for earning a credential is a challenging task to measure. More so, it is believed that there is some combination of both tangible and intangible factors that makes certification a great investment of time and money for both businesses and professionals. Thus, earning a certificate in ITIL Foundation will bring an edge not just to your career, but also to your organization as well. It will highlight your credibility as a professional, and in turn, makes you ready to obtain higher certificated in ITIL as well.
