The ITIL 4
Certification Path is:
point earlier where the relationships between these practices need to be made clear.
I assume this will happen in future ITIL 4 publications. Speaking of which, I have heard, from totally unreliable sources, that these future publications will be based on the ITIL 4 certification levels, the 5 books covering the intermediary training:
1. ITIL Specialist – Create, Deliver and
Support
2. ITIL Specialist – Drive Stakeholder
Value
3. ITIL Specialist – High Velocity IT
4. ITIL Strategist – Direct, Plan and
Improve
5. ITIL Leader – Digital and IT Strategy
As for the individual practices, these will be detailed using on-line publications. In this way, ITIL itself can remain Agile, posting regular, small updates to the practices as the Service Management world continues to evolve.
