Course Description
Interested in a career on an IT Service / help desk?
Are you tasked with setting up a new IT Service / Help desk?
Or are you just looking for guidance on best practice as a manager?
Then this course is for you!
Service Desk is probably thee most important aspect of any IT service provider - it is the first part of a user journey where users will regularly interact with it whether its via an incident or an request.
My main focus is always on practical application, less on theory. I feel this gives the learner a better experience as reality does not always meet theory in application.
I hope you enjoy the course, and I will always respond to any questions you may have as you embark on this course!
Goals
1. Scoping out your work - thinking about what will your service desk offer and reflecting that in the design of your service desk.
2. ITIL and service desk - what does ITIL say about Service Desk and what activities at a high level should they do?
3. Work streams - an analysis of typical work that a service desk will do.
4. Shift left strategy - how do you ensure your service desk remains efficient and your 1st line team is engaged and always learning new skills?
5. Team management - how do you measure performance?

Mark Grey
I have worked in many roles in ITIL and Agile spaces. I have worked in airports, retail, IT sector, chat moderator for a bingo website, and many more. I like to share my knowledge of what I have learned along the way in a no nonsense way.
I also have a very keen interest in history; I have 2 items I found metal detecting in museums, gold panned in Scotland, and trace family trees!
