used to be that when you were ready to get your ITIL Certifications you signed up for a live instructor-ed, classroom-delivered course.\u00a0 When you did that, you had to get approval to take off from work and the budget to take the class.\u00a0 Live ITIL classroom courses can cost anywhere from $1,200 to $3,500 depending on the course, the length of the course and whether or not\u00a0the\u00a0certification exam was included in the cost of the training.\u00a0 With training budgets being the first to be hit when budgets are tightened, many individuals and organizations are turning to online self-paced ITIL courses.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Online self-paced ITIL training has\u00a0many benefits:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>You can train on your timeframe<\/li>\n<li>You can train from any location<\/li>\n<li>Courses are available 24\/7<\/li>\n<li>You can repeat and rewind in order to master the materials<\/li>\n<li>Pricing is at 50 to 75% lower than classroom training\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gogotraining.com\/contact\/\">Contact Us<\/a>\u00a0for course and exam pricing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>The Downside to Online Self-Paced ITIL Training<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The biggest downside is time.\u00a0 Whenever you are assigned or decide to take a class you MUST allocate the time to take the class.\u00a0 We have found that the most successful students setup a schedule and, if assigned by their company, get approval to take the time to take the class from their manager.\u00a0 This ensures that there is a timetable and approval to take the class.\u00a0 Almost like getting approval to take a live class.\u00a0\u00a0 When you treat an online class like a live class you will have a much better chance of completing the class and sitting for the certification exam.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Goal Setting and Time Allocation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you are good at managing your time and setting goals, then online self-paced training will be a good vehicle for you to achieve your goals in a timely and cost-effective manner.\u00a0 The most important thing to do is to set your goals and to allocate the time to achieve them.\u00a0 The next most important thing is to find a course that is engaging.\u00a0 There are courses taught by computers and animation and there are courses taught by real instructors.\u00a0 Everyone has different interests and most companies allow you to sample their courses before you buy them.\u00a0 Take the time to sample and find the type of course that you find most engaging.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How to Pick A Great Online Self-Paced ITIL Training Class<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The most important feature of any online self-paced class is that it is created by an expert instructor and designed and proven to be a successful knowledge transfer course.\u00a0 For example, there are organizations today that allow anyone to put up a course without checking the author\u2019s credentials.\u00a0 To be successful you want to make sure that the organization you choose is working with expert instructors.\u00a0 You want to make sure that the classes are accredited.\u00a0 In the case of ITIL you want to make sure that the courses are taught by ITIL Experts\u00a0and that they\u00a0include sample exams, exercises designed to help you master the materials and\u00a0you want to be able to ask the instructor questions.\u00a0 Do not accept a substitute.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Check Box for Success<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Here are a list of questions you will want to ask to help ensure your success:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Is the class accredited?<\/li>\n<li>Is it taught by an ITIL Expert?<\/li>\n<li>Does the course come with exercises?<\/li>\n<li>Does the course come with sample exams?<\/li>\n<li>What kind of support comes with the class?<\/li>\n<li>Do I have access to the instructor to ask questions?<\/li>\n<li>How long do I have access to the class?<\/li>\n<li>Can I take the course as many times as I need to in order to master the content?<\/li>\n<li>Does the course come with exam tips?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>\u00a0<strong>Have Questions?\u00a0 Need a Price Quote?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The team at GogoTraining is here to help.\u00a0 Have a question about a certification?\u00a0 Need
