ITIL 5 Practice Manager

Hi Everyone, I am quite confused. So I have completed SL and trying to work on MP - both under version 5. I noticed that for Practice Manager, there is no version 5 yet on Peoplecert's website. My question is, Am I supposed to complete the V4 modules? or are they releasing a version 5 soon?

ITIL 4 to ITIL 5 Rules & Tips

  1. If you have an ITIL 4 Foundation Certification (Active or Not) you can upgrade your Foundation Certification to ITIL 5 by taking the ITIL 5 Bridge Certification. This is the fastest and least expensive way to update your ITIL 5 Foundation and recertify for 3-years. This is for people who are Foundation Certified and have no plans to go on to advanced ITIL 5 certifications.
  2. If you have the ITIL 4 Practice Manager or Strategic Leader Designations you only need to take 1 course & exam to achieve the ITIL 5 Designation. The Certification is ITIL Transformation, and my understanding is that it is an amazing class. Probably the best ITIL 5 class because it gives you the tools you need to use in the real world.
  3. If you hold the ITIL V3 Expert, ITIL 4 Managing Professional or ITIL 4 Master Designations you too only need to take 1 Certification to upgrade to ITIL 5. The Certification is the Managing Professional Transition. It is a 5-day course in the classroom (about 20 hours in eLearning) and includes 2-exams (one for MP and one for Transformation).
  4. If you hold only ITIL 4 Foundation and you want to go for advanced courses you have the option to go right into any ITIL 5 Advanced course without having to take the ITIL 5 Foundation.
  5. If you are new to ITIL you have the choice to do either ITIL 4 or ITIL 5. ITIL 4 will be available until December 31, 2027. If your organizations uses 4 or you are going after a job that requires V4, go for V4. Otherwise you can go straight to ITIL Version 5.

Is this helpful and what's the best path for you?

Why ITIL Transformation is #1?

The new ITIL Transformation Certification is #1 because it is the only ITIL 5 Certification that brings ITIL to life in the real world. 

Because of this:

  • ITIL Transformation is the only certification that is included in every ITIL (Version 5) Training Path.  From Practice Manager to Managing Professional to Strategic Leader.
  • You can go from Foundation to Transformation without having to take any other advanced certifications. Get all the knowledge you need to succeed with 1 Advanced ITIL Certification.

Why is Transformation in Every Path?

  • Transformation is the glue that holds ITIL 5 together. 
  • It is the glue that shows you how to apply ITIL 5 in the real world. 
  • It is the glue that brings all ITIL Certifications to life.

Could PeopleCert have written a home run with Transformation? What do you think?
