The ITIL 4 Managing Professional certification path is focused on how to run successful IT enabled services, teams and workflows.  It was created to help IT Practitioners who work in technology and support digital teams across the business.  The path consists of 4 courses, and we are often asked the best order to take the courses so here is some great input by course author Dr. Suzanne Van Hove.  We hope you find this helpful and look forward to hearing from you.

1. ITIL 4 Strategist:  Direct, Plan and Improve (DPI) – DPI is a great starting point because it starts you, as the provider, on the strategic thinking/governance piece.
2. ITIL 4 Strategist:  Drive Stakeholder Value (DSV) – DSV then focusses on the customer journey – understanding what the customer wants/needs and addressing those requirements.
3. ITIL 4 Strategist:  Create, Deliver & Support (CDS) – CDS then looks at the processes to create, deliver and support the service.
4. ITIL 4 Strategist:  High Velocity IT (HVIT) – HVIT focusses on how disrupting technologies can be exploited/included in your design.

In my mind, HVIT should be taken last if only due to the heavy focus on technology.  When designing a service, the focus should be on meeting the needs of the consumer and provider. If you already have a great customer focus, then you can jump into HVIT.  Just remember it is the hardest and most intense of the four Managing Professional courses with much memorization of tables included.

Why Take DPI First?

DPI is the class that I would take first in order to understand the foundational elements of the Service Value Stream (SVS), and to prepare the environment for service creation and delivery, stakeholder management, and eventually looking at the high-velocity environment.

Focus On The Organization

Looking at the new ITIL® training schema and the importance of service value system, Governance and guiding principles are key to setting up a system that reflects the needs of the organization and consumer.  ITIL 4 Direct, Plan and Improve focuses on those aspects, ensuring the foundational principles are in place so that the approving of new/changed products and services is accurate and beneficial to the organization and consumer.

Factors Critical to Your Success

The principles of governance, risk and compliance (GRC) are the main topics of DPI as well as organizational change management (OCM), continual improvement, and measurement and reporting.  While these topics are may be a bit on the “non-exciting” side, they are crucial and fundamental to good service delivery.

Are you planning on becoming an ITIL 4 Strategic Leader?  If yes, read on…The ITIL 4 Strategic Leader Designation consists of 2 courses, however, depending on your background you may only have to take one of them.  Here is how it works:

There are two courses in the Strategic Leader Path:

• ITIL Strategist: Direct, Plan and Improve (DPI)
• ITIL Leader: Digital and IT Strategy (DITS)

Now here is where it gets tricky:

1. If you took the ITIL 4 Managing Professional Transition course, then you only have to take the Digital and IT Strategy course to become a Strategic Leader.
2. If you took Direct, Plan and Improve as part of your Managing Professional series of courses, then you only have to take the Digital and IT Strategy course to become a Strategic Leader.
3. If you are new to ITIL 4, then you need to take the ITIL 4 Foundation course before you can take either DPI or DITS.
