Overview
5 Days
The course builds on the general principles covered as part of the ITIL® Foundation Certificate Course and provides in-depth knowledge of the ITIL® RCV topics as specified in the ITIL® Service Capability curriculum. This includes Change Management, Release and Deployment Management, Service Validation and Testing, Service Asset and Configuration Management, Request Fulfilment, Service Evaluation and Knowledge Management. There is an examination at the end of the course. The RCV exam is very challenging. It consists of a complex multiple-choice, closed book paper of 8 questions, to be answered within 90 minutes. The pass mark will be 70% or more. Successful candidates will be awarded 4 credits towards the ITIL® Expert qualification.
- Service Management as a Practice.

- Service asset and configuration management as a capability to monitor the state of service transition.
- Knowledge management as part of enhancing the on-going management decision support and service delivery capability.

We recommend the course participants are familiar with the 5 ITIL® Core Publications prior to attending the course. In particular, the process chapters from the Service Operation Book and Service Transition Book. We estimate approximately 10 hours of personal study will be required. The ITIL® Books are not included with this course.
