Certified Process Design Engineer (CPDE)
About this Course
There are many process frameworks that define best practices for achieving quality service management including ITIL®, ISO/IEC 20000, MOF, CobiT, CMMI, etc. While each describes a set of integrated processes and controls, none provide step-by-step methods and techniques for actually designing, re-engineering and/or improving those processes.
The Certified Process Design Engineer (CPDE)® certification course teaches how to (re)engineer and improve quality, lasting IT Service Management (ITSM) processes. This highly-interactive course provides hands-on opportunities to analyze, design, measure and integrate ITSM processes. The knowledge obtained in this course applies to every Service Management framework, standard and maturity model.
