Rotterdam, April 3, 2008 - ITpreneurs today announced the release of its ITIL v3 Foundation PREMIUM E-Learning course. Built around the scenario-based learning model, the 16.5-hour, self-paced course immerses learners in an edgy, online game-like environment.
Rich context is added to key concepts, helping learners better understand the ITIL Service Lifecycle at a foundation level. After taking the course, learners are well prepared to take the foundation certificate-level exam, and even more importantly, to effectively understand how these best practices would benefit their own organization.
The course takes a highly interactive approach to teaching the core disciplines of ITIL v3, using simulated real world challenges to teach learners how the IT best practice is used to deliver IT service at the strategic, tactical, and operational levels.
This experiential learning environment not only appeals to the so-called “Nintendo Generation,” but also to anyone who learns best by actually doing.
In the ITIL v3 Foundation PREMIUM course, learners are invited to a Virtual Training Conference at a lush resort hotel, where they attend different conferences hosted by experienced ITIL v3 experts. Throughout their “stay,” learners assist hotel management with a variety of projects that test their new ITIL knowledge.
