Le test étant sous forme d’un QCM, le plus simple pour se préparer est de faire un QCM… Si possible qui ressemble à celui qui sera réalisé. Il est souvent plus pertinent de choisir un QCM en anglais, qu’en français, si les supports du cours ont été donné en anglais, et le test en anglais. Ce qui au début, est toujours le cas… Surtout pour normalement bénéficier d’un extra-time, de 25%.

La certification en Suisse est de 300 CHF, merci de solidairement boycotter cela en ne passant pas cette certification, et en exigeant un retour à un prix non spéculatif et déjà guère raisonnable de 150 CHF. Ras le bol d’être pris pour des vaches à traire. Axelos, 17 Rochester, Row, London, SW1P 1QT, UK.

Désormais, pour capturer et exploiter nos données, on va carrément te demander de les payer, je rêve! Et non, ce n’est pas une blague:

Crois-tu qu’il l’ont photoshopé pour lui filer la grosse tête au carré? C’est une tronche c’est sûr, cela donne envie… de fuir!

Je boycotte aussi, ne m’y cherchez pas… (Bon peut-être pour regarder les templates, les white papers? Ah oui, le badge… Important le badge… Juste 1 année alors!)

Si tu as des questions à proposer et ajouter ? Fais-le en commentaire ou rejoindre la communauté libre QuickLearn, pour devenir co-éditeur.

Les réponses sont “cachées” derrière l’* de commentaire à droite, dans la marge.

Evidemment, on peut se tromper, et tu peux nous corriger!

Disclaimer: Nous n’avons pas les moyens de vérifier l’origine des questions proposées ni si elles correspondent à des vraies questions d’examen ou pas. Nous vous invitons à éviter de proposer ou partager les “vraies” questions des examens. Eviter de passer cet examen sans suivre une formation, au moins des tutoriels, ou disposer d’une réelle expérience pratique, car à part vous “planter” en entreprise en faisant semblant “de savoir”, vous n’obtiendrez pas grand chose d’autre…

Aux employeurs: Nous vous encourageons à valider les acquis prétendus en demandant un certificat de suivi de formation, ou bien un certificat de travail dans une expérience réelle incluant des pratiques ITIL.

Aux entrepreneurs: Simplement reproduire une pratique ITIL existante dans une précédente organisation, pour mettre en place de l’ITIL, n’est pas une bonne idée! Ou pire, mettre en place ITIL sans un accompagnement d’une personne expérimentée, et si possible ouverte aux nouvelles entreprises, dîtes 2.0 ou libérées (même sans mettre en oeuvre la moindre “libération”, juste car ces coachs disposent d’un esprit plus “ouvert”…)

Disclaimer: Alors les questions utilisées ci-dessus ont été généreusement partagées sur des pages internet, par diverses contributeurs, et les dépositaires ne nous ont pas toujours fournis leurs références sources, désolé. Si certaines questions sont piles celles du test, ou du document de test fourni par Axelos sous ©, ceci est un accident, et merci de nous aviser par email info@quicklearn.ch afin de les en retirer. Notre organisation non-lucrative ne fait aucun bénéfice avec ce site, et nos bénévoles qui le maintiennent n’ont pas les moyens de passer le temps nécessaire pour passer au crible tous les documents sous © de la planète pour s’assurer de la conformité légale des informations, ci-présente, alors n’hésitez pas à nous “instruire” de nos devoirs envers vous, si vous vous sentez lésés. On regardera alors si votre requête nous semblera “légitime” ou pas, dans les juridictions qui nous astreignent, et on avisera…

Ce contenu est posé sous licence libre CC-BY-NC-SA, si vous le réutilisez à des fins commerciales ou pour assurer vos propres formations, nous en serons ravis, et vous proposerons de nous rejoindre comme contributeur. Nous vous demanderons aussi de bien vouloir rétribuer les autres rédacteurs en proportions du travail qu’ils auront apportés, mais uniquement sur quelques % en espérant ce support sera réutilisé par plusieurs formateurs. Quelques dizaines de CHF ou € y suffiront, http://callme.kotte.net pour obtenir le PPT.

En français

Il est possible de télécharger un PDF de 12 pages, avec un jeux de 40 questions comme un vrai test, depuis le site d’AXELOS (en anglais aussi). Les réponses (bonnes) sont dans un PDF à part. Mais ils ne nous donnent pas le droit de les reproduire ici, désolé. Il est aussi nécessaire de “cramer” une adresse email chez eux pour se faire spammer avant de l’obtenir: 25 emails en 2 ans, et un spam mensuel gratuit, un! https://www.axelos.com/login?returnurl=/my-axelos/my-itil

Bon, à la fin, c’est surtout pour te dire que si tu cliques pas sur leur pub, ils vont t’enlever de leur emailing! Et à tout moment, j’eusse pu dire bye bye! Donc ce n’est pas si terrible. Ils sont net-éthique!

Tu peux ajouter en commentaire des sources d’aides, ou des jeux de questions…
