ITIL® Strategy (Version 5) — Everything You Need to Know

Explore the full ITIL® Strategy (Version 5) certification guide — including training formats, exam details, prerequisites, certification pathway, and FAQs — before you enroll.

Description

The ITIL® Strategy (Version 5) eLearning course is an advanced module in the ITIL (Version 5) certification scheme. It offers practical guidance for developing, delivering, and optimizing strategies to create lasting value — helping you align technology, investment, and execution with business outcomes in complex, AI-driven environments.

This flexible, self-paced program introduces the ITIL Strategy Management Model with its two interconnected cycles: strategy development (observe, orient, decide, plan) and strategy implementation (plan, execute, synthesize, reflect). You'll learn how operating models and business models support strategic intent, how to make informed decisions in uncertain settings, and how strategic capabilities — including leadership, governance, innovation, responsible AI, and sustainability — shape and deliver value-driven strategy.

You'll study at your own pace while covering all concepts required to confidently prepare for the official ITIL® Strategy (Version 5) certification exam, recognized globally by employers and organizations.
