Overview

The ITIL® Foundation (Version 5) provides a modern, practical introduction to digital product and service management, reflecting the latest evolution of the framework released in 2026.

Our 3‑day version goes further than the standard Foundation course by combining the core concepts with hands‑on practice, giving learners a real introduction to how ITIL practices are applied in day‑to‑day work.

The course covers the ITIL Value System, the Product & Service Lifecycle, guiding principles, and the updated practices, all of which support work in AI‑native and digital‑first environments.

By the end of the course, you will be able to:

  • Explain the core concepts of digital product & service management, including value creation and co‑creation.
  • Understand the Four Dimensions of product and service management.
  • Apply the ITIL Guiding Principles in real scenarios to support better ways of working.
  • Describe the Product & Service Lifecycle (Discover → Design → Acquire → Build → Transition → Operate → Deliver → Support).
  • Understand how the ITIL Value System works and how practices support value delivery.
  • Recognise how AI, automation and complexity‑ready thinking shape modern service environments.
  • Use core ITIL practices through guided exercises, such as:
    • Incident Management
    • Change Enablement
    • Service Request Management
    • Problem Management
    • Continual Improvement
  • Build confidence mapping simple value streams and applying practice workflows.

This course is designed for:

  • IT professionals entering or transitioning into service management roles.
  • Service desk & support teams, engineers, analysts, and technicians.
  • Practice managers, service owners, product teams, and cross‑functional operations roles.
  • Anyone who wants not only to understand ITIL v5, but also to see how it is practically used.
  • Teams working in modern, AI‑enabled service environments.

While there are no mandatory prerequisites, having experience in IT services is advantageous.

Once upon a time, in a bustling city where glass skyscrapers kissed the sky and the hum of technology filled the air, there was a small park. This park was an oasis of greenery amidst the urban sprawl, home to a majestic oak tree that stood tall and proud. This oak had witnessed the city grow and evolve over many decades, and it had become a symbol of strength, wisdom, and resilience for the locals.

Across the street from this park, a group of visionary entrepreneurs was in the process of establishing a new consultancy firm. They wanted a name that would not only represent their commitment to providing insightful and robust solutions but also reflect their deep roots in the community and their dedication to helping businesses grow and flourish.

One crisp autumn morning, as the founders met to brainstorm names, a ray of sunlight broke through the clouds and illuminated the old oak tree in the park. Its leaves shimmered with a golden glow, casting a warm, inviting light. Inspired by this radiant sight, one of the founders suggested the name “BrightOak.” The name embodied the brilliance of innovative ideas and the steadfast strength of the mighty oak, a perfect metaphor for their consultancy.

And so, BrightOak Consultancy was born, with a mission to illuminate the path to success for businesses of all sizes, drawing on their wisdom and experience to help clients thrive in an ever-changing world. The majestic oak continues to stand as a reminder of their origins and their commitment to excellence.
