You take the certification exam online proctored on the PeopleCert® platform at a time of your choice (24/7/365). We will take care of the application for the exam for you in return for an examination fee, which we charge for the PeopleCert® certification institute. Peoplecert® - the official accreditor of ITIL® - now binds the acquisition of the exam to the seminar.
You will receive an exam voucher that is valid for 12 months from the date of order. We strongly recommend that you take the exam as soon as possible after the seminar. Certified examiners will accompany your exam via webcam. The questions are answered on a web interface. You have 60 minutes to answer the 40 questions (75 minutes if English is not your native language). You need 26 (55%) correct answers to pass the exam. This is not an open-book exam, so you are not allowed to refer to textbooks. You will receive the provisional result immediately after the exam.
You can find more information on the technical requirements for taking the exam on the PeopleCert® website. At the bottom of the page you can download instructions in any language. We recommend that you test the environment (Web Based Online Proctored Exams) in advance.
After successfully passing the exam, you will receive your personal international ITIL® 4 Foundation Certificate in IT Service Management as an e-certificate in your PeopleCert® account just 48 hours after completion. This entitles you to participate in the advanced ITIL® 4 Managing Professional courses, which will take you further along the path to the title of ITIL® Managing Professional Leader / ITIL® Master.
In this context, please also refer to our FAQs for PeopleCert® examinations.
The new Continuing Professional Development Program from PeopleCert® is designed to help you stay successful in the competitive job market. To keep your expertise up to date, all Global Best Practice certifications must be recertified within 3 years of the original award date.

Take advantage of the official PeopleCert mock exams with the Mock Exam! These are complete, timed, and graded exams that give candidates a feel for the real exam and help them familiarize themselves with the exam interface.
This allows you to practice and, if necessary, combat exam anxiety by simulating the exam situation and better preparing yourself for the content and setting. The actual exam will be much easier to handle, especially since you will get an overview of your success rate in the respective subject areas.
Important: Your official mock exam is valid for 12 months. Once you have started the mock exam, you have 24 hours to complete it. You can add the mock exam as an optional product at checkout.
