"Excellent trainer. I've had quite a bit of training in both CMMI and ISO in the classroom environment, and she is one of the best (if not the best) instructors I have had. That's remarkable considering it was a virtual environment."
"Liz you are the consummate trainer - only had the priviledge of your virtual training, but suspect if the training was live - you would have rocked as well!!!"
"I think Liz did a really good job and it seemed like a real class even though everyone was virtual"

Service improvement must focus on increasing the efficiency, maximizing the effectiveness and optimising the cost of services and the underlying IT service management processes. The only way to do this is to ensure that improvement opportunities are identified throughout the entire service lifecycle.
The primary purpose of Continual Service Improvement (CSI) is to continually align and re-align IT services to the changing business needs by identifying and implementing improvements to IT services that support business processes.
The main objective of service operation is to coordinate and carry out the activities and processes required to deliver and manage services at agreed levels to business users and customers. Service operation is also responsible for ongoing management of the technology that is used to deliver and support services
The OSA course can teach organizations and individuals how to manage the everyday operation of IT services and gain a better understanding of how to implement the ITIL® processes that will enable them to deliver and support services to customers.
It also covers issues relating to the people, relationships, procedures and infrastructure technology required to ensure that the organization or programme can provide the high quality and cost effective IT services that are required to meet organizational needs.
The SOA course is designed to help organizations and individuals understand how the five stages of the ITIL® lifecycle (service strategy, service design, service transition, service operation and continual service improvement) can offer value to organizations and projects. It also provides guidance on how service offerings can be developed to support both business and user needs.
The RCV course is designed to develop organizations’ or individuals’ understanding of the ITIL® Service Transition processes. It can ensure transitional changes are effectively managed, new services are validated and tested and that release and deployment fulfill organizational requirements. RCV also provides guidance on evaluating change and managing knowledge to improve decision-making processes.
In-depth and complete ITIL® process development. Working with your own staff and within your operating conditions , we will develop a plan to help your organization work towards the ITIL® framework.
