Prerequisites / Requirements

This course is intended for individuals who already hold an ITIL® 4 Foundation certification.

Holders of higher-level ITIL® 4 certifications (such as Managing Professional or Strategic Leader modules) are also eligible, as these build on the ITIL® 4 Foundation level.

Please note that standalone modules such as Sustainability in Digital & IT and Acquiring & Managing Cloud Services do not replace ITIL® 4 Foundation and therefore do not meet the prerequisite on their own.
