Many, many thanks to our trainer, Michael, who led a great training session on ITIL 4 Foundation for me and my colleagues. Michael is an excellent teacher—we had no trouble understanding the new material, and he always made sure we addressed all our questions and concerns. And we couldn’t be more grateful for the examples! The language, the pace of the explanations, and the interaction with us—everything was perfect.

A very good overview and lots of ideas September 1, 2020

By Anita Scheschonka
(Toll Collect GmbH)

I gained a really good and comprehensive overview of portfolio management and came away with many ideas for our company. The traditional MoP, however, doesn’t go into much detail about agile work methods. Michael still answered my questions on this topic, though. The seminar worked well for me even online. Thank you very much. It was fun.

The instructor was very well-suited for the virtual classroom. Pleasant voice, ideal volume, clear sound. Working through the material with the help of the graphics was very helpful. The instructor addressed all of the participants’ questions and regularly checked to see if everything was clear. Practical examples were provided throughout the session.

ITIL v3 Foundation Course Review - Michael Heyn January 22, 2020

By Cristof Ziel
(DekaBank Deutsche Girozentrale)

Hello everyone, Now that the training is over, I’d like to share my feedback on it and on our trainer, Michael Heyn. Although the training content itself is quite dry, Michael managed to make it a lot of fun (probably for all participants). He consistently found effective ways to illustrate topics or entire sections of material and was always able to come up with great examples off the cuff. This allowed me to successfully refresh my ITIL Foundation v2 knowledge in a very relaxed and pleasant environment. I also really liked the training center: super friendly, attentive staff, good food, and plenty of “toys” throughout the building to ensure the participants had a good time. I highly recommend both the trainer and the training center. Thank you very much for the great three days! Best regards, Cristof Ziel

Everything was great. The material was explained in a fantastic and engaging way, so it was never boring or sleep-inducing. That's exactly how a training session should be.

By Volha L.
(1&1 Internet AG - Karlsruhe)

Many thanks to Michael Heyn for the great training! I really enjoyed it; I learned a lot. I never thought that such “dry” material as ITIL could be so interesting. The training was very well structured and a lot of fun. All topics were thoroughly covered and reviewed. Thanks again.

Review of ITIL Foundation Training September 4, 2019

By Sabine Jaax
(SoCura GmbH)

Hi Michael, I thought the training was very well structured, and you explained the material (despite the sheer volume) in a way that was easy to understand and repeated it often enough that I was able to memorize many key terms right away. I appreciated the sample questions—they were very helpful. Your additional diagrams were also very clear and made a lot of things easier to understand, especially because you chose an example that even someone without significant IT knowledge could visualize (a PC workstation). (PC workstation) Thank you very much for the informative training and the thorough preparation.

Top service, training structure—system issue August 19, 2019

By Uwe E.
(1&1 IONOS SE)

My review requires some differentiation: Performance by Serview and Michael H.: Michael H. prepared us very well for the MoP© exam and was always able to answer participants’ individual questions with realistic examples. I’m giving this aspect alone a 5-star rating here. Criticism of the general training structure: It’s a shame that there is little to no time left to work through and reflect on individual topics—for example, through group work—or to use that time to deepen one’s understanding of the material. Unfortunately, the exam-relevant material is too tightly packed to allow for this during the 2.5-day course. The main risk here is that participants simply store the material in their short-term memory to pass the exam, with little emphasis placed on long-term retention and the practical application of what they’ve learned. In my view, this is a systemic problem. Conclusion: I don’t just want a certificate in my pocket; I want to take something meaningful away with me. Axelos should urgently address this issue.

Excellent training—now up to date on ITIL 4 July 17, 2019

A very professional training course; the instructor had both many years of ITIL experience and the necessary project experience. It provided good exam preparation, and at the same time, I learned a lot about how ITIL can be applied in everyday IT work. I highly recommend SERVIEW and ITIL4!

Thanks to Michael Heyn for the great ITIL4 Foundation training! Michael was always able to respond to questions spontaneously and eloquently, and he was also able to provide practical examples that went “beyond” the course material! Thanks again!

As good as ever April 17, 2019

(Matrix42)

The training was good as always, and the workbook concept continues to work well for me. Maybe a few more ideas. -) Flipcharts use colors that should also appear in the workbooks; this would significantly improve readability -) Structure/flow: Packing the Guiding Principles into the last section is quite a challenge, since delays can easily occur; plus, they tend to be rather “dry.” At the end of the second day, with the exam on everyone’s mind, it’s hard to really refocus on this topic. In my opinion, it would make sense to cover this topic right on the first day after the SVS (since the context is still fresh). The Practices could then be covered on the second day; these are usually a bit “easier” or more accessible.

Feedback on the 3-Day Feedback Session January 16, 2019

By Unknown
(Accenture)

Das Training hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Trotz des sehr theoriebasierten und elementaren Hintergrund des ITIL-Foundation-Kurses, war Michael in der Lage die Schulung so zu gestalten, dass meine Konzentration nicht verloren ging. Darüber hinaus hat Michael den Inhalt in einer sehr verständlichen Art und Weise anhand von Use Cases vermittelt. Auch hat Michael sichergestellt, dass jeder im Kurs sich nicht verliert und hat jede Frage mehr als zufriedenstellend beantwortet. Die Bereitstellung der Räumlichkeiten und Services waren sehr gut. Den Lehrstil von Michael schätze ich sehr und bedauere es sehr, dass dieser Kurs lediglich einen Zeitfenster von 3 Tagen hatte. Da relativ sehr viel Inhalt in einem kurzen Zeitraum reinkam besteht die Gefahr, dass das Gelernte nur kurzfristig hängen bleibt. Insgesamt bin ich sehr zufrieden und würde mich freuen, wenn meine nächste Schulung wieder durch Serview GmbH begleitet wird.

This course was exceptionally well-prepared. The instructor was very effective at conveying the material. He also responded very well to questions from the audience and consistently tied them into the context of the training. With instructors like Mr. Heyn, learning is both enjoyable and efficient.

Mit seiner Art und durch sein beträchtliches Fachwissen schafft es Herr Heyn sowohl absolute Neulinge wie auch in ITIL erfahrene Teilnehmer gleichermaßen abzuholen und zum definierten Ziel zu führen. Konzeption und Umsetzung der Schulung waren hervorragend! Ebenso die Räumlichkeiten und die Bewirtung bei netlogix.

A wealth of content presented in a concise manner June 10, 2018

By G. Camkerten
(Deutsche WertpapierService Bank AG)

The intensive seminar is very well structured, and the instructor (Michael H.) was able to present the material in a clear and organized manner. He also consistently highlighted the connections between concepts, so that we didn’t get lost in the individual details and were able to keep the big picture in mind. Even though it was really demanding, I would still highly recommend the seminar. I took away many practical conceptual approaches from these two ITIL modules (SS+SD).

The training was good. The trainer tried to make the session interactive, especially by having us take notes, rather than just listening to a PowerPoint presentation. I took the exam in English. It would have been good if the materials had been provided in English for those who chose to take the exam in English.

(Phoenix Group IT)

Mr. Heyn managed to present a very theoretical and dry topic in a way that kept us from falling asleep. It was a good idea to forgo slides and present the material using a flip chart. Having to take notes certainly helps with concentration and contributes to a deeper understanding. He addressed all questions and always answered them using clear and practical examples. I think it’s ultimately thanks to him and this approach that I passed the exam. Many thanks to Mr. Heyn.

Base factor met December 4, 2017

By Guarino Christoph
(KION Group IT)

The training had covered the basics, but there weren't enough interactive examples to better engage the participants. Perhaps this was also because the topic of service strategy is quite abstract unless you happen to be a CEO or in a similar position.

By Karl Schdenz

Since I’ve already taken several work-related courses on risk management, I can say that I have very fond memories of this training. It included many familiar concepts and models, but also provided new insights for my daily work. Not to mention the organization of the seminar—it was simply outstanding!

Great training with a very motivated instructor—the material is manageable in 3 days, especially since the course materials are perfectly tailored to the exam and all topics were explained using very concrete examples. I highly recommend Serview for the ITIL Foundation training!

By Philippe Gebhardt (Detecon International)

This workshop was very valuable. It was logically structured and easy to follow, and the trainer was both knowledgeable and personable. However, three days is a bit short for the amount of material covered. A fourth day wouldn't have hurt. Thank you!
