It provides a practical framework for identifying, planning, delivering and supporting IT services to the business built on the highly successful ITIL Framework.

ITIL 4 Foundation is still fully recognised and continues to act as a valid prerequisite for the advanced ITIL modules, so the certification you earn here keeps its value. If you are starting out, ITIL 4 Foundation is a sound and current choice.
