There was a time when gaining your ITIL® qualification was fairly simple and straightforward. However, since the advent of ITIL® Version 3 there is now a melting pot of Lifecycle, Capability, Bridging and Expert qualifications. So, where do you start, or how do you continue? How do you find the most suitable route to become an ITIL® Expert, without getting lost in the qualifications maze?

Firstly, it is important to establish what has changed between version 2 and version 3. The topics covered by version 3 are more up-to-date and comprehensive, but for the most part unchanged.

For delegates and organisations that are relatively new the ITIL® process, then version 3 is an obvious starting point.

However, for those delegates who already hold version 2 qualifications, or wish to fast track to the new ITIL® v3 Expert qualification, then FGI provide a straightforward route to achieve this.

All version 2 qualifications, whether at foundation or managers level, can be easily upgraded to the new version 3 qualification, with the ITIL® v3 Bridging Course.

Although FGI are one of the first accredited training organisations to offer the new ITIL® version 3 intermediate modules, the full route to achieving the version 3 expert qualification will not be available until mid 2009.

However, as one of the leading providers of ITIL® training, FGI offer an exclusive route to achieving the version 3 expert status within' days.

The v2-v3 Managers Expert route will take delegates through the version 2 managers' process, and upgrade to the version 3 expert by completing the v3 Managers Bridging course.

While version 3 is similar to version 2, the new version will contain more recent information, and after all the very ethos of ITIL® is continuous improvement.

What ever route you decide, FGI offer a pass guarantee, skills protection guarantee, no course cancellation and post course tutor support with all their training courses.

So, does this all sound complicated, or are you trying to navigate through the qualification maze?

FGI specialises in ITIL® training and consultancy and will provide comprehensive advice on the different routes available.

Whether you are an individual looking to book on a public schedule course, or a large corporate organisation that require on-site training, FGI offer flexible training and consultancy solutions.
