ITSM/ITIL (ICT) Infrastructure Management: Executive Overview or Awareness Sessions

PT4718
Training Summary
Information and Communications Technology (ICT) systems are evolving rapidly. There is a greater emphasis on ensuring complex and sophisticated systems and services are cost-effective, plus there is a requirement for them to be introduced in short time intervals. This represents a daunting challenge for ICT Management.These sessions are designed to provide participants with an overview of how to manage a quality and cost-effective infrastructure. It is this infrastructure on which services underpinning the business processes of an organization are supported and delivered - an area that is often not focused on, but forms the basis on which success is achieved (or not).These sessions will provide participants with an overview of ITIL Infrastructure Management (ITIL IM) processes, interfaces, objectives, and deliverables. ITIL IM extends on the scope of the Service Support and Service Delivery processes and delivers a bigger picture of the IT Service lifecycle. They will also provide an overview of ITIL IT Service Management and inspire participants to embrace the ITIL Infrastructure Management framework in support of planned complementary process improvements. The sessions will enable participants to more effectively converse with staff engaged in ITIL Infrastructure Management activities.
Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites for these sessions, however some knowledge of ITIL Service Support and Service Delivery would be an advantage. It is also expected that all candidates will have an ICT professional understanding of ICT components and processes.
