Compare ITIL 4 training options.

ITIL 4 Foundation is a certification earned by passing its exam. Training is optional and separate — below is what providers publish to prepare you for it. No provider paid for placement or ordering here and none can; if you later ask us to introduce you to one, that introduction may earn us a fee, and it still cannot change a price, an ordering, or a word on this page.

Before you price this: The prices below are for ITIL 4 Foundation training only. PeopleCert now also sells ITIL Foundation (Version 5), and offers a Foundation Bridge for people who already hold ITIL 4. On 2026-07-29 ITIL 4 Foundation was still available to earn on PeopleCert's own page, and we found no retirement date for it on the pages we checked. So: if an employer, contract or internal standard specifically names ITIL 4, confirm that before buying. If nothing does, compare Version 5 first. If you already hold ITIL 4, look at Bridge eligibility before paying for a full course. Check the vendor's page.

Published training prices, by provider

Read the rows before you read the prices. These are not comparable offerings. Provider offerings can appear in the same table despite having different delivery modes because each row is a published price for preparing for the same exam, not because the offerings are the same product. Whether the exam fee is included and how long you keep access all differ — so the lowest number here is the cheapest listed price, and nothing more than that.

Every price in this table is published by the provider and captured on the date shown in 'As of'. Providers change list prices without notice, so treat an older reading as a starting point and confirm on the provider's own page before you budget. They are training prices, not the exam fee. 'Exam' shows whether the provider states the exam fee is included in the price, is not, or says nothing either way, and 'Includes / access' repeats the provider's own description of what the course covers — their words, not ours. Where a provider describes a course in PDUs, those are professional development units for maintaining a credential you already hold; they are not the same thing as the contact hours a certifying body may require before you can apply. Check the eligibility requirement on this page against what the provider actually says it delivers.

Published spread

Among the 2 provider prices verified below, the published training cost for ITIL 4 Foundation at ordinary commercial rates ranges from $1,695 per course (ONLC Training Centers, Instructor-led (live)) to $2,515 per course (Learning Tree International, online). This is a published-price range, not a recommendation — delivery mode, exam inclusion, and what's bundled differ, so the numbers are not apples-to-apples.

Budget for the exam separately wherever 'Exam' shows exam fee not included. Where it shows not stated, the provider's page did not say either way — ask before you buy. This comparison includes only offerings whose price we verified on the linked provider page; quote-only offerings cannot be compared in the range above. See the training providers hub.

Deciding whether to pay

The question these prices answer is not whether to take ITIL 4 Foundation — it is whether to pay someone to prepare you for it. That turns on something the table cannot tell you: whether you will actually finish without a schedule, whether you need an environment you cannot build yourself, and whether anyone else is paying. If you are weighing a structured course against studying on your own, bootcamp versus self-study works through that decision with the same published prices.
