ITIL v3 Foundation passed :)
Hi Guys/Gals,

Just to let you know that I've passed the ITIL v3 Foundation exam this morning.

Passing score: 26/40 or 65%
My Score: 26/40 or 65%

Not bad considering I've been self-studying for it for the last week or so. But to pass on the mark... I would have cried if I had gotten 25/40 Looking forward to my new cert & Green badge to come thru, lol.

Now back on to the 70-649 track (after a couple of days rest)...

ITIL BadgesFor each of the three main ITIL certifications, a 'badge' is awarded, being a different colour for each level. The colours are as follows:
ITIL Foundation = Green Badge
ITIL Practitioner = Blue Badge
ITIL Manager = Red Badge

It's like the MS lapel pin, nice to collect, but haven't seen anyone actually wear them, lol

I wouldn't say it was quick progress as the official course for this is 3 days, I took over double the time. But it was alot cheaper

Well done ken. good job on getting that 'dry bone' out of the way.

oh, yeah... I took the ITIL exam a while back... and scored a frustrating 25/40... yep, fail by one point . May try again soon.

Definitely cheaper, half doing it because my work is "supposed" to be ITIL-comparable and they like it but also looking out for myself in future - because of this work won't pay, and I won't be £700+ out of pocket!

It is a little dry though, abstract also which never helps!

Congrats on the pass, im still awaiting the results through the post for mine, but im expecting a fail as most of the questions were complete guesswork.

As i've said before 3 days is too short to take in all that business speak and after only three days I wonder on the quality of what I've learnt. I'd much rather learn something properly than whizzing through 250 power point slides in 2 and a bit days.

Still all the free tea and biscuits were nice!
