PeopleCert (AXELOS) lists ITIL Managing Professional Transition (Version 5) as a related current path, not a direct replacement; a practice exam for it is not available yet.
The ITIL 4 Managing Professional (MP) Transition Practice Test is designed for experienced ITIL practitioners who hold the ITIL v3 Expert or ITIL v3 Managing Professional designation and are seeking to transition to the ITIL 4 framework. This comprehensive 136-question exam assesses your understanding of four core ITIL 4 modules: Create, Deliver and Support (CDS); Direct, Plan and Improve (DPI); Drive Stakeholder Value (DSV); and High-Velocity IT (HVIT). The test covers the practical application of service value streams, operational excellence, governance, risk management, stakeholder engagement, and the principles of agile, lean, and DevOps in high-velocity environments. It is intended for IT managers, service owners, process architects, and consultants who need to validate their ability to lead service management improvements in modern, digitally-driven organizations. By passing this exam, candidates demonstrate they can translate ITIL 4 concepts into actionable strategies that align IT services with business outcomes, optimize resource utilization, and foster a culture of continuous improvement. The test emphasizes scenario-based questions that require critical thinking rather than rote memorization, ensuring that successful candidates can apply ITIL 4 principles to real-world challenges such as incident management, service desk operations, and stakeholder communication.
