Why study this course

This Combined course is also available as two separate courses: PRINCE2 Foundation and PRINCE2 Practitioner.

Included in this course is the Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2® 6th edition manual and the PRINCE2 Foundation Exam. On completion of the Foundation course, students will be provided supporting AXELOS membership services online. Also included in this course is the PRINCE2 Practitioner Exam. To assist in passing the exam you are permitted to use only the PRINCE2 6th Edition official publication provided.

PRINCE2 is a process-based approach for project management, providing an easily tailored and scalable method for the management of all types of projects, across industries, both locally and internationally. The continued international development of PRINCE2 examinations, training and course material is contributing significantly to the recognition of PRINCE2 as a truly relevant and international project management standard.

By attending our 3-day PRINCE2 Foundation Course, participants will understand:

The 7 Principles, 7 Themes and 7 Processes that underpin the PRINCE2 project management method
The purpose and content of the PRINCE2 Process Map
Key roles and responsibilities in a PRINCE2 project
How to apply project management processes to effectively control the preparation, execution and closure phases of a project

By completing the Foundation course, participants will have sufficient knowledge to sit the PRINCE2 Foundation Examination.

Following on from Foundation, our PRINCE2 Practitioner course is uniquely designed to provide the in-depth knowledge and understanding necessary to practice and apply the PRINCE2 6th edition methodology.

Participants are required to exhibit the competence required from the PRINCE2 Foundation qualification and show how they can apply PRINCE2 to address the needs of a project, the sponsoring organisation and the needs of various stakeholders, to a set of specific project scenarios.
