FitSM® Advanced Service Planning and Delivery (SPD) - accredited training with exam
training code: ZP-FitSM-SPDen / ENG DL 2d / ENFitSM® is a free and lightweight standards family aimed at facilitating service management in IT service provision.
The FitSM® standard and associated certification scheme are maintained by the ITEMO (IT Education Management Organisation) FitSM® working group. The FitSM® standard was initially developed through the FedSM Project, funded by the European Commission.
FitSM® is designed to be compatible with ISO/IEC 20000-1 (requirements for a service management system) international standard and ITIL®. The FitSM® process model, requirements, recommended activities and role model targets a lightweight implementation. Equally, it can be applied as a first step to introducing full ITSM, i.e. applying ITIL® good practices and/or achieving compliance against ISO/IEC 20000-1.
The main goals of FitSM® are to:
- Create a clear, pragmatic, lightweight and achievable standard that allows for effective IT service management (ITSM)
- Offer a version of ITSM which is more accessible for a wider range of environments than traditional ITSM solutions, including federated scenarios
- Provide solutions which can be efficiently implemented in organisations ranging from SMEs and start-ups through to large enterprises
- Define a baseline of ITSM effectiveness that is achievable but can be expanded if necessary
Course objectives:
- Repeat the most important foundation knowledge on (lightweight) ITSM
