About ITIL Foundation (Version 5)
Prepare for the ITIL Value System, the four dimensions, the eight product and service lifecycle activities, value streams, ITIL and AI, and ITIL alongside other frameworks.
This independent practice bank follows the official PeopleCert Foundation syllabus v5.0. Its 288 original questions cover the syllabus learning outcomes and assessment criteria. They are not real exam questions, and no vendor sample questions or text from the ITIL core publication is reproduced.
Check the version before studying. ITIL Foundation (Version 5) has a different syllabus from ITIL 4. Version 5 uses the ITIL Value System and an eight-activity ITIL Product and Service Lifecycle, with categories covering value streams and ITIL and AI. An ITIL 4 question bank is not a substitute for Version 5 preparation.
Who should take this exam?
ITIL Foundation (Version 5) is the entry qualification for the ITIL Version 5 track. PeopleCert lists no prerequisites.
Existing ITIL 4 Foundation holders can instead take the shorter ITIL Foundation Bridge (Version 5) module to reach the same certification. Check the official PeopleCert exam page before choosing your route.

Domains and practice coverage
Use the official exam weights, not the size of each practice pool, to plan your revision.
| Syllabus category | Official exam weight | Practice questions |
|---|---|---|
| Key ITIL terms and definitions | 30% | 57 |
| The ITIL Four Dimensions of Product and Service Management | 10% | 25 |
| The ITIL Product and Service Lifecycle | 10% | 63 |
| The ITIL Value System | 40% | 75 |
| Value stream identification, mapping and management | 5% | 24 |
| ITIL and AI | 2.5% | 22 |
| ITIL and other frameworks | 2.5% | 22 |
| Total | 100% | 288 |
The practice allocation deliberately gives the three smallest categories more questions than a strictly proportional split would provide. This leaves enough material to revise those topics while keeping the ITIL Value System the largest practice pool. It is a study allocation, not a prediction of the question mix on your exam.
The ITIL Value System carries 40% of the official exam weight. ITIL and AI and ITIL and other frameworks are tied at 2.5% each; neither is outside the syllabus.
