    Taxing Taxonomy

    ITIL has a well-defined but complex taxonomy. This Workshop offers an overview of the ITIL framework--to serve business needs successfully and predictably, you must commit ample time and resources toward studying, implementing and maintaining ITIL.

We'll delve deepest into service support and delivery--these offer the best way to begin understanding ITIL.
