ITIL® Intermediate - Continual Service Improvement

ITIL® Intermediate - Continual Service Improvement focuses on how organizations and individuals can strategically review the products and services they have produced.

Continual Service Improvement (CSI) is one of five ITIL® Service Lifecycle modules.

It focuses on how organisations and individuals can strategically review the products and services they have produced following the strategy, design, transition and operation stages of the IT Service Lifecycle and offers guidance on how this process should be organized and executed. This module concentrates on the principles and techniques from the Continual Service Improvement stage of the ITIL Lifecycle, without going into detail about specific processes.

CSI also includes guidance on the tools and technology that can be used to support related activities and how to evaluate risks and critical success factors.

CSI offers best practice that helps businesses and projects continue to meet and adapt to the changing needs of end users, whilst at the same time improving efficiencies and returns on investment for organisations.

Service Operation best practice enables organisations and IT teams to effectively sustain and maintain the products and services they develop, ensuring that their users are provided with efficient resources.

The CSI certification can only be taken following an accredited training course.

Who is CSI for:

CSI is relevant for CIOs, CTOs, Business Relationship Managers, Cyber Resilience Consultants, Service Level Managers, IT Security Architects, IT Security Managers, Business Continuity Managers, IT Consultants, IT Audit managers, and any IT professional involved in continual service improvement.

NOTE: ITIL v3 Continual Service Improvement in English has been discontinued. The module will remain available in German until 31 December 2022. After that date, candidates with similar interests might want to consider taking the ITIL 4 Strategist Direct Plan and Improve module.
