    What Is the ITIL 5 Foundation Bridge?Your Fast Route to the Latest Credential

    The ITIL (Version 5) Foundation Bridge is a one-day certification that lets ITIL 4 Foundation holders update their knowledge and credential to ITIL 5, the latest version of the world's most widely adopted IT service management framework from AXELOS (PeopleCert). Rather than repeating foundational content you already know, the bridge focuses only on what is new and changed in ITIL 5. London's banks, consultancies, global capability centres and public-sector bodies run their service operations on ITIL, and employers increasingly expect teams to work to the current version. By bridging across, you keep your credential relevant, speak the updated ITIL 5 language with confidence, and show hiring managers that your service management knowledge is up to date. This programme suits service desk leads, incident, problem and change practitioners, service delivery managers and ITSM consultants who already hold ITIL 4 Foundation. Earn the recognised ITIL 5 Foundation credential the efficient way and keep your career moving with Invensis Learning.

    Invensis Learning is a Peoplecert Accredited Training Organization (2778) in London, approved to deliver official ITIL 5 Foundation Bridge certification training using accredited courseware and standards.

    Frequently Asked QuestionsHere's everything you may ask...

It focuses only on what is new and changed, so you transition efficiently without repeating foundational content. Passing grants the ITIL 5 Foundation credential.

    General

    What is the ITIL 5 Foundation Bridge certification?

    The ITIL 5 Foundation Bridge is a short certification that lets ITIL 4 Foundation holders update their credential to ITIL 5, the latest version of the AXELOS framework. It focuses only on what is new and changed, so you transition efficiently without repeating foundational content. Passing grants the ITIL 5 Foundation credential.

    Who should take the ITIL 5 Bridge course in London?

    It is designed for ITSM professionals in London who already hold ITIL 4 Foundation, including service desk leads, incident, problem and change practitioners, service delivery managers, consultants and trainers who want to keep their credential current with the latest ITIL version.

    Is the ITIL 5 Foundation Bridge worth it?

    Yes. ITIL skills are in strong demand across London's finance, consulting, public-sector and technology employers, and certified ITSM professionals typically earn 15 to 20 percent more than non-certified peers. Bridging keeps your credential aligned to the current framework that hiring managers expect.

    Do I need ITIL 4 Foundation before the bridge?

    Yes. ITIL 4 Foundation, or an equivalent, is the prerequisite for the bridge. If you do not hold ITIL 4 Foundation, you should take the full ITIL 5 Foundation course instead. The bridge assumes your existing ITIL 4 knowledge and does not re-test it.

    How long is the ITIL 5 Foundation credential valid?

    The certification is valid for three years. You renew it by earning 60 CPD points within the three-year cycle through the PeopleCert MyAxelos scheme, or by passing a higher ITIL 5 qualification.

    Who governs the ITIL 5 certification?

    ITIL is owned and published by AXELOS, now part of PeopleCert, which also delivers the examinations. PeopleCert announced ITIL 5 in 2026, and the bridge is the official route for ITIL 4 holders to move to it.

    Pricing

    How much does ITIL 5 Bridge training cost in London?

    Fees vary by format and provider, and the bridge is usually bought as a combined training and exam package. Live online and classroom options in London are available on request. Contact a learning advisor for current pricing and group rates.

    What is included in the course fee?

    Your enrolment typically includes instructor-led training on what is new in ITIL 5, accredited courseware, practice questions, exam preparation support and learner support. The PeopleCert exam may be bundled or billed separately depending on the package you choose.

    Is the exam fee included in the price?

    It depends on the package. Many ITIL 5 Bridge packages bundle the PeopleCert exam voucher with training, while others bill it separately. PeopleCert prices the exam in GBP for UK candidates. Ask us for a quote that confirms exactly what is included.

    Do you offer corporate or group discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate training with tailored schedules and volume pricing for ITSM teams in London and across the UK. Request a group quote and we will build a package around your team size and goals.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfer, with instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Exam

    What if I do not pass the bridge exam first time?

    You can resit the PeopleCert exam. Our training includes targeted preparation on the ITIL 5 updates and practice questions to build your readiness, and selected plans include retake support. Confirm the current resit policy with PeopleCert before booking.

    What is the format of the ITIL 5 Bridge exam?

    The exam is closed book with 20 multiple-choice questions and a 30-minute time limit. It is delivered online with PeopleCert OnVUE proctoring, available 24/7, or at an authorised test centre.

    What is the passing score for the bridge exam?

    The pass mark is 65 percent, which is 13 of the 20 questions answered correctly. The exam tests only the new and changed content in ITIL 5, not the ITIL 4 material you already know.

    How do I book the ITIL 5 Bridge exam?

    You schedule the exam through your PeopleCert account once you have your voucher, choosing OnVUE online proctoring from home or office, or an authorised test centre. Our team can guide you through booking after your training.

    What credential do I earn by passing?

    Passing the bridge grants the ITIL 5 Foundation credential, the same outcome as sitting the full ITIL 5 Foundation exam. It enables progression to higher ITIL 5 qualifications.

    Course Content

    Do I need prior experience to follow the course?

    You need ITIL 4 Foundation as a baseline, but no additional experience is required. The bridge is designed for practising ITSM professionals and builds directly on knowledge you already have, focusing only on the ITIL 5 changes.

    What topics does the ITIL 5 Bridge cover?

    It covers the key enhancements in ITIL 5, the evolution to digital and AI-enabled product and service management, updated language and core concepts, the enhanced value-creation approach, and how to apply ITIL 5 in practice.

    How is ITIL 5 different from ITIL 4?

    ITIL 5 introduces the product and service lifecycle as a core structure, evolves the Service Value System into the ITIL Value System, adds value stream management, and explicitly addresses digital and AI-enabled environments. The bridge focuses on exactly these differences.

    Is the courseware aligned to the latest ITIL version?

    Yes. The courseware follows the official ITIL Foundation Bridge Version 5 syllabus from PeopleCert and AXELOS, covering the new and updated content introduced in ITIL 5.

    What learning materials are provided?

    You receive accredited courseware, practice questions mapped to the bridge syllabus, revision aids and trainer-led guidance on applying the ITIL 5 updates in real service management contexts.

    Enrollment

    How soon can I start and how do I enrol?

    You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website and join an upcoming live online or classroom cohort in London. Choose your format, complete payment, and you receive access to schedules and materials. Talk to an advisor to find the next batch.

    What training formats are available in London?

    We offer live online (live virtual) instructor-led training, classroom sessions and customised corporate group training. As a focused one-day programme, the bridge fits easily around a working schedule.

    Can I reschedule or transfer to another batch?

    Yes. Flexi options let you reschedule or move to another cohort if your plans change. Contact our support team to arrange this before your session.

    Is the course delivered online or in person?

    Both. You can join the bridge as live online instructor-led training from anywhere in the UK, or attend a classroom session in London. Corporate teams can also book onsite delivery.

    What is the refund or cancellation policy?

    Refunds and cancellations follow our published policy, and selected plans include a money-back option. Reach out to our team for the details that apply to your enrolment.
