Course Description

There has been a major push in Australia towards ITIL® (Information Technology Infrastructure Library). This is becoming a default standard in the IT industry. This identifies that IT is a service and all IT workers are service providers. However, this breakthrough course goes further and creates a “service” culture and mindset within the IT Department. Imagine taking your IT Team to the brink of customer service excellence where they are completely engaged by the service nature of their role too. There is a perception that some IT workers don’t really want to be “service providers”. Ideally IT should be like every other top quality service … you don’t notice it until you need it and then when you do there is always room for value-add.
