    A colleague of mine is going to start self studying for the ITIL v3 Foundation exam using CBT Nuggets.

    A few questions:
    1. Is there anywhere in Dublin where you can sit the exam without doing the course there?
    2. Is the exam computer based (ala Prometric) or a hand written exam?
    3. Does anyone have any opinions as to whether it is a certificate worth pursuing? My colleague already has a degree in IT and is MCSE2003 certified.

    I was being lazy so here are the answers to one and two.

    It is a computer based multiple choice exam. As the exam can be done through Prometric, I presume that New Horizons allow you to sit the exam in Dublin.

    Question 3 still applies if anyone has an opinion?

    To book an ITIL exam go to the Prometric site

    The link above is for the ISEB which is the body that covers the ITIL v3 exams.

    From there, just follow the links to Schedule an Exam and off you go..

    Exams cost 146€

    Best to do online course (usually cheaper than the exam fee) then go to testing centres. I used ITpreneurs for the course (incudes mock exams). Here are the centres for Ireland:
