How to Achieve ITIL Expert Certification:
The ITIL qualifications scheme offers a modular approach to the ITIL® framework. In this scheme, candidates are free to select from a variety of qualifications which focus on targeted areas of the ITIL Service Lifecycle to varying degrees of depth and specialism.
The flexibility of modules available means that candidates are free to tailor their own individual qualifications portfolio to their own personal and professional requirements.
For those candidates who decide to aim for ITIL Expert, the possible module combinations are many; however, there are some key requirements all candidates must meet, which are:
- All candidates must hold the ITIL Foundation certificate or a Bridge qualification equivalent.
- A total of 22 credits minimum must be achieved from ITIL Intermediate courses and exams.
- The Managing Across the Lifecycle module must be taken and passed once 17 credits have been earned.
- Candidates should achieve a balanced knowledge base across the full ITIL Service Lifecycle.
These requirements will ensure that all candidates who achieve ITIL Expert have successfully completed a series of qualifications which span all ITIL disciplines consistently.
Once you have successfully completed all requisite ITIL modules and have earned sufficient credits, you will be awarded the ITIL Expert certificate.
