In this FitSM Foundation training course, you’ll learn to implement the foundations of effective IT Service Management (ITSM) processes using Fits — a concise, lightweight, and achievable ITSM standard. FitSM is designed for professionals who wish to be quickly recognized for having the competencies needed to implement effective ITSM processes — without delving into the intense detail of other frameworks.
ITSM is the de facto standard most organizations use to manage IT and streamline Information Technology activities into customer-facing services. Initially, the IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL®) provided the core guidance using a Best Practice for organizations to fulfill this purpose. However, with very few exceptions, only a few processes are adopted, mainly in customer interfacing IT support.
