As an IT Service Desk Employee, you are the first point of contact for technical questions and failures from end users. From a laptop that won't start up to printer issues or network failures: you'll learn how to help quickly and professionally. Learn how to work with tickets, prioritize incidents, SLAs, and tools like ServiceNow. You will also develop important soft skills: communicate clearly, work in a customer-oriented way and stay calm when someone is stressed. You will also dive into the world of IT Service Management (ITSM) and the ITIL® 4 framework, the standard in IT support. As an extra, this course includes an exam voucher for the official ITIL® 4 Foundation exam via PeopleCert. In short: you can obtain not one, but even two certificates.

Who is the IT Service Desk Employee course for?

Do you want to work in the IT sector and are you looking for a practical course that allows you to get started quickly? The IT Service Desk Employee course is a good choice if you are looking for a promising profession with many vacancies and career opportunities. You don't need any technical knowledge and you can follow the course in Dutch or English. This course is a perfect fit for:

If you want to make a career switch to IT:

Do you want to switch to the IT sector? You will learn the basics of IT support and develop skills that will help you start as a side entrant in a junior service desk position.

Starters in the labor market

Want to find your first IT job? You learn how to work with tickets (such as ServiceNow), resolve incidents and communicate professionally with end users.

Progressors

Are you already working in IT and want to expand your career towards IT service management? You will strengthen your knowledge of ITSM/ITIL, incident management and SLA agreements.

The difference with our other data course

In addition to the Business Data Analytics course, we also offer the Data Analytics with Python training on. Both courses prepare you for a career in data analysis, but the focus is different. Business Data Analytics focuses on analyzing and visualizing data in a business context, working with tools such as Power BI, Looker Studio and GA4. The Data Analytics with Python course goes a step more technical and focuses on processing and analyzing large data sets with programming languages. You'll learn how to work with SQL and Python, including libraries such as Pandas, NumPy, and Matplotlib, that allow you to perform deeper analyses and even build predictive models.

Bottom line: Business Data Analytics is perfect if you want to work directly with data within companies, without programming. Data Analytics with Python is ideal if you want to explore the technical side of data analysis and dive deeper into code. Which direction suits you best?

Why choose this course?

At Winc Academy, we combine a practical approach with personal guidance. You not only learn the theory, but you apply it directly to projects that are in line with practice. Whether you're a beginner or already experienced, we'll help you grow confidently and future-oriented as a business data analyst.

Are you looking for a different direction in IT? Be sure to take a look around at our Back-end Development retraining or the training as a Full-stack developer.

I really learned a lot

I finished my Front End Dev. course here with a lot of pleasure. The mentors are very helpfull and meeting students via the slack platform is very nice. I really learned a lot and I'm feeling secure that I can change my career into something new. I would highly recommend Winc to anyone who'd like to study Front End Development. Thank you Winc!

Loved diving into the online marketing course at Winc Academy!

Loved diving into the online marketing course at Winc Academy! It wasn't just about learning new skills (which it totally did!) , but also about pushing myself and proving that the whole “creatives can't be analytical” thing is a myth. Seriously, this course boosted my confidence and made me curious about what else I could learn. Feeling grateful for the whole experience — it was a real gift to myself! Plus, the Winc Academy team was awesome — super helpful and encouraging. Highly recommend this course to anyone looking to level up their skills and explore new possibilities!

Winc has been a fantastic learning platform

Winc has been a fantastic learning platform for me. The courses are well-structured, and the instructors provide clear explanations, making complex topics more understandable. The interactive and hands-on approach, especially in the coding courses like BED JS, has been incredibly helpful in reinforcing my understanding.

I can only recommend it!

I followed the “UX Design with Figma” course at Winc Academy. It's a very well structured course, with lots of theoretical and practical knowledge, (with additional resources to dig deeper) that can be followed in your own pace, whenever you have time or feel like doing it. All Winc Academy students are connected via the community app where you can meet people following the same course, help each other, develop together. I am using Figma now on a daily basis, both for work and for my personal use. I can only recommend it!

Agile Project Management, conveniently arranged digitally

Winc has a nice, well-organized portal. The curriculum is also clear, with example cases, which makes the theory a bit more light-hearted. The digital system works very well, so I didn't need contact with a “physical Winc employee”. Strangely enough, I do miss that a bit afterwards. Hence not 5 but 4 stars.

One big community!

Good course material, plenty of live lessons, helpful teachers and fellow students. Slack is great for connecting with each other. Constructive criticism is always taken seriously. 1 point for improvement. The time indicated in which you can study is the same for a Newby in tech or a student who is already familiar with programming languages. Six months of Full Stack development for a Newby is too short. There may be a difference in that. This is especially important for students who follow the course through the UWV, because then time is also important.

Back-End has thus become clearer and even more interesting

Many parts have been covered through this course. Working with Python was challenging but the assignments were fast. Much of the logic of what Back-End does has certainly become clearer and even more fascinating.

Upgrading JS skills

For a Front End Developer, this course expands your JavaScript skills. You need understanding of coding before entering this course. When you are making the exercises it gives you power to learn more.

For people who don't have time to take a lesson, this is ideal

For people who don't have time to take a lesson, this is ideal. All courses are in English, so basic English is a must. Unfortunately, it was not indicated anywhere when registering. But everything turns out to be its own! Mentors also always answer your questions. Good luck!

A good course Cybersecurity for everyone

For me I learned a lot. There are things I didn't know about or didn't understand enough yet. Now I feel like a follow up course Ethical hacker is something that I wanne do or take more follow-up steps.

Educational and gained a lot of knowledge

It was an educational and valuable course. Good examples and lots of explanations from the lecturer. Good teaching material and support was very good. I found it very pleasant. It was an eye opener when it came to the many options you have with Power BI. The fabric covers the entire load. From beginner to advanced Power BI user, this is a useful course.

I have the 'Data Analytics with Python'...

I took the 'Data Analytics with Python' course and am really excited about it! Before I started, I already had programming experience, but I learned all this myself. Through this course, I learned how to apply the 'better' methods from experienced programmers. All in all, very happy with the course!

This course is a very in-depth look into the working of cyber security. What a person can do to increase his/her/their online security. It will make you see where you need more action. Plus links to valuable sites. I enjoyed this course and have learned a lot.
