What makes this different

You build, not just watch

From the first session you are on your own developer instance, configuring, scripting and breaking things safely. That is what makes it stick.

Taught on the current release

No outdated screenshots. Everything maps to the release ServiceNow runs today, including current AI and platform features.

One trainer who still implements

One working consultant for the whole batch, no rotation, so the teaching is consistent and grounded in real projects.

Support continues to the offer

Resume review, mock interviews on real scenario questions, and referrals. Support does not stop when the last class ends.

Every session runs on a real ServiceNow developer instance, so you configure and build rather than watch.

IT Canvass does not issue the official ServiceNow credential.

How IT Canvass compares

Against a typical training provider, this Hardware Asset Management course is taught on the current ServiceNow release, gives you your own developer instance from day one, and keeps one working consultant for the whole batch instead of rotating trainers. Every module is mapped to the CIS-HAM exam, sessions are recorded with lifetime access, and job support (resume review, mock interviews and referrals) is included in one transparent fee. Most providers still teach older release material, run slide-first sessions with limited lab time, and bill support and recordings as add-ons.

Fees, batches and policies

The questions people actually ask before enrolling, answered plainly.

What is the total fee and what does it include?
The fee covers every live session, lab access on a practice system, the project work, recordings, resume review and interview preparation. There is no separate charge for materials. Exam fees are paid to ServiceNow, Inc. directly and are not included. Ask for the current fee and any running offer on the enquiry form, since batch pricing changes.
What are the batch timings, and do they work outside India?
Weekday batches run early morning and evening IST, and weekend batches run across both days. Early-morning IST suits US evenings (EST) and late-evening IST suits UK and Gulf mornings. If none of the published slots work, a one-to-one fast-track batch is scheduled around your timezone.
What happens if I miss a session?
Every session is recorded and shared the same day, so you can catch up before the next class. You can also sit the same session again in a parallel or later batch at no extra cost, which is the better option for configuration-heavy topics.
How long do I keep access to the recordings?
Recordings and course material stay available for one year from the batch end date. Lab access to the practice system is time-boxed to the course plus a short extension window, because the systems are shared.
Is there a refund if the course is not right for me?
You can attend the first two sessions and withdraw for a full refund if it is not the right fit. After that, the fee is transferable to another batch or another course rather than refundable. Confirm the current terms in writing before you pay.
Is the certificate issued by ServiceNow?
No, and no training provider can issue it. IT Canvass issues a course completion certificate. The ServiceNow credential is awarded only by ServiceNow, Inc. when you pass their exam, which you book directly with them. This course prepares you for that exam and gives you the project experience the exam assumes.
