ITIL Pins

It has been a well-known tradition for years that passing an exam in IT Service Management (based on ITIL®) does not only result in a certificate, but is also accompanied by the presentation of a metal pin which can be attached to a collar or lapel. This distinguishing badge with basic gold color is set in the form of the internationally well-known ITIL® logo.

Exam candidates who have successfully passed the examinations for ITIL® version 3 will receive their appropriate pin. The new pins are very similar to ITIL® V2 pins, but every level has a different color corresponding to the ITIL® V3 core books.
