    Do I need ITIL 4 Foundation before taking the Bridge?

    Yes. ITIL 4 Foundation certification is the prerequisite for the Bridge. If you do not hold ITIL 4 Foundation, you should take the full ITIL 5 Foundation course and exam instead.

    How long is the ITIL 5 Foundation credential valid?

    The ITIL 5 Foundation credential is valid for three years. To maintain it, you renew every three years by earning 60 CPD points or by passing a higher ITIL 5 qualification through PeopleCert.

    Pricing

    What is included in the ITIL 5 Bridge course fee?

    The training fee typically includes accredited courseware aligned to AXELOS and PeopleCert standards, instructor-led sessions, practice materials, and learner support. The PeopleCert exam may be bundled or billed separately depending on the package. Request a quote for the current inclusions.

    How much does ITIL 5 Bridge training cost in San Jose?

    Pricing varies by format and whether the exam is bundled, so the current fee is available on request. The PeopleCert exam is billed in USD under regional pricing. Talk to a learning advisor for a tailored quote.

    Is the PeopleCert exam fee included in the training price?

    It depends on the package you choose. Some options bundle the training and the PeopleCert exam together, while others price them separately. PeopleCert bills the exam fee in USD, so confirm the exact figure when you enroll.

    Exam

    What is the format of the ITIL 5 Bridge exam?

    The Bridge exam is closed book and uses multiple-choice questions. It has 20 questions and a 30-minute time allowance, and it tests only the new and changed content in ITIL 5 relative to ITIL 4.

    How many questions are on the exam and what is the pass mark?

    The exam has 20 questions, and the pass mark is 65 percent, which means 13 correct answers out of 20. The questions cover the five Bridge topic areas focused on what is new in ITIL 5.

    Course Content

    What topics does the ITIL 5 Bridge training cover?

    The training covers the five Bridge topic areas: key enhancements in ITIL 5, digital product and service management evolution, updated language and core concepts, the enhanced value creation approach, and applying ITIL 5 in practice. It focuses only on what is new since ITIL 4.

    Can a complete beginner take this course?

    The Bridge is not an entry point, because it assumes ITIL 4 Foundation knowledge. Beginners should start with ITIL 4 Foundation or take the full ITIL 5 Foundation course. If you already hold ITIL 4 Foundation, the Bridge is the fast route to ITIL 5.

    Is the courseware aligned with the latest ITIL 5 syllabus?

    Yes. The courseware is aligned to the AXELOS ITIL Foundation Bridge Version 5 syllabus and is delivered to PeopleCert standards, so you study current, accredited content throughout the program.

    Are practice materials included in the training?

    Yes. The program includes practice questions and review activities mapped to the Bridge syllabus, along with trainer guidance, to help you identify weak areas and build readiness for the PeopleCert exam.

    How long is the ITIL 5 Bridge training?

    The Bridge is a focused, one-day training program. Because it covers only what is new and changed in ITIL 5, you update your knowledge efficiently without repeating ITIL 4 Foundation content.

    Enrollment

    How do I enroll in the ITIL 5 Bridge course?

    You can enroll through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and you will receive access to schedules, courseware, and learning resources. A learning advisor can help you pick a batch.
