Invensis Learning is an EXIN Accredited Training Provider in New Zealand, approved to deliver official VeriSM Foundation training using EXIN-aligned courseware and the EXIN VeriSM Foundation Certification Examination Content Outline(ECO).
The VeriSM Foundation exam validates your understanding of the VeriSM service-management framework for the digital age. The exam focuses on the VeriSM model, service-management principles, the management mesh, the four stages of the VeriSM model (Define, Produce, Provide, Respond), progressive practices, and integrating VeriSM with other service-management frameworks. Through a combination of multiple-choice questions, candidates are tested on their ability to apply VeriSM principles in real-world digital-service environments.

As teams juggle ITIL, Agile and DevOps, professionals who can unify practices into one flexible model stand out. Demand spans service desk and delivery roles through to IT operations and service management leadership, and here is what the market is telling us right now.
VeriSM Foundation is more than a certificate. It is a modern service management mindset New Zealand employers need. Join professionals who unify frameworks and connect service delivery to outcomes. Start your journey today.
New Zealand's IT and service management market is expanding with cloud adoption and digital transformation, and employers increasingly separate professionals who can shape modern services from those tied to one framework. Here is which side of that line you want to be on.

In VeriSM Foundation training you will learn how to define a flexible, context-driven service management approach for the digital age. The programme maps to the seven topic areas of the EXIN VeriSM Foundation examination specification, so what you learn is what the exam assesses.
Grasp what a service is, how value is co-created, and why digital transformation demands service-centric, outcome-based thinking rather than technology-first delivery.
Learn how culture, values, people and organisational structure shape service delivery, and how consumer-centric thinking and servant leadership underpin modern service management.
Work with the VeriSM model, its governance and service management principles, and the management mesh that integrates resources, environment, and emerging and management practices.
See how ITIL, Agile, DevOps, Lean, SIAM and other practices sit within the mesh, and learn to select and combine them based on your organisation's context and needs.
Understand how cloud, artificial intelligence, automation, IoT and analytics influence service management, and how technology shapes the mesh and the practices you can adopt.
Learn how organisations begin their VeriSM journey: assessing maturity, defining an initial mesh, integrating existing frameworks, and driving continuous improvement over time.
