Course Overview

This course, ITIL® 5 Foundation Bridge, is offered on Friday, 10/2/2026. The ITIL® 5 Foundation course is running 9/29/26 - 10/1/2026.
 
The launch of ITIL® (Version 5) introduces refinements and updates that professionals need to understand as organizations begin aligning with the latest version of the framework. For those already certified in ITIL 4, staying current is important to ensure terminology, governance perspectives, and lifecycle understanding reflect Version 5 expectations. Maintaining updated certification helps professionals remain aligned with evolving service management standards.
 
ITIL® (Version 5) Foundation 1-Day Bridge Course is designed for ITIL® 4-certified professionals seeking a structured, efficient transition. The program focuses on what has changed in Version 5, how updated concepts differ from ITIL® 4, and how these updates are assessed in the Foundation certification exam. Rather than revisiting foundational content, the course concentrates on transition clarity and exam readiness.
