“I just passed my ITIL® V3 Foundation exam – which ITIL® V3 Intermediate path to I choose now?”
This question was asked in the Linkedin Group for The Art of Service’s ITIL® training.
Following is my answer:
Hmmmm… you mean the $64,000 question? Which path you choose depends entirely on your goals and objectives:
PATH 1:
ITIL® V2 Foundation – ITIL® V2 Manager – ITIL® V2-3 Bridge
This path is used by many people who already have their ITIL® V2 Manager certificate as they only have to do an eLearning bridge program to achieve ITIL® Expert certification. The other reason to do this path is when you really want to master the art of selling the benefits of ITSM, as well as applying various ITIL® opportunities to a variety of scenarios (businesses). I would recommend this path to people who already have a solid understanding of the ITIL® V2 framework
PATH 2:
ITIL® V2 Foundation – ITIL® V2 Practitioners (x4) – ITIL® V2-3 Bridge – ITIL® V3 Managing across Lifecycle.
