Top 5 Most Popular IT Training Courses

With an increased interest in IT training within businesses, below is a list of the top 5 most popular choices for IT training courses in the South of England.

1. VMware vSphere: INSTALL, CONFIGURE, MANAGE
VMware virtual infrastructure simplifies IT so companies leverage their storage, network, and computing resources to control costs and respond faster. The VMware virtual infrastructure approach to IT management creates virtual services out of the physical IT infrastructure, enabling administrators to allocate these virtual resources quickly to the business units that need them most.

Attending a VMware training course will enable you to gain in-depth skills and industry-recognised certification on VMware technology. The VMware Certified Professional Program is designed for any technical individual who want to demonstrate their expertise in virtual infrastructure and increase their potential for career advancement by becoming a VMware Certified Professional (VCP).

The vSphere course is aimed as an introduction to both the new and enhanced functionality in the latest release of VMware's Virtual Infrastructure suite. It allows delegates to gain training on the new version. The course does assume a base knowledge of infrastructure technologies, however no prior knowledge of virtualisation is needed; this course takes the student from knowing nothing, or little, through to understanding the functionalities of the product, and being able to install and configure the products. At the end of this hands-on training course, you will understand the new features and functions of the new version of vCenter and ESX.

2. ITIL FOUNDATION V3
The IT Infrastructure Library® (ITIL) is the most widely accepted approach to IT service management in the world. ITIL is a best practice framework that has been drawn from both the public and private sectors internationally. It describes how IT resources should be organised to deliver business value, documenting the processes, functions and roles of IT Service Management (ITSM). ITIL (the IT Infrastructure Library) is essentially a series of documents that are used to aid the implementation of a framework for IT Service Management. This customisable framework defines how Service Management is applied within an organisation.

ITIL provides a systematic and professional approach to the management of IT service provision. Adopting its guidance can provide such benefits as:

• reduced costs
• improved IT services through the use of proven best practice processes
• improved customer satisfaction through a more professional approach to service delivery
• standards and guidance
• improved productivity
• improved use of skills and experience
• improved delivery of third party services through the specification of ITIL or BS15000 as the standard for service delivery in services procurement

The ethos behind the development of ITIL is the recognition that organisations are becoming increasingly dependent on IT in order to satisfy their corporate aims and meet their business needs. This leads to an increased requirement for high quality IT services. ITIL courses start with the ITIL Foundation and leads on to a full range of Service Management topics.

3. PRINCE2 FOUNDATION & PRACTITIONER
Projects bring together resources, skills, technology and ideas to achieve business objectives. Using a structured project management method such as PRINCE2 helps an organisation to ensure that these objectives are delivered to an appropriate level of quality and within the constraints of time and cost. It is also an essential element in managing the risks inherent in change and innovation.

PRINCE2 is used extensively throughout the public sector in the UK and is also widely recognised and used commercially in the UK and abroad. The method can be applied to all kinds of project including information systems projects. Prince2 project management enables projects to be carried out effectively, efficiently and productively. The Prince2 software supports the management, control and organisation of a project by providing a clearly structured framework.
Prince2 Training courses available are Foundation, Practitioner Conversion and Foundation and Practitioner.
