Why study this course

This Foundation course usually runs consecutively with PRINCE2 Practitioner as a five-day Combined course at a reduced price.

Included in this course is the Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2® 6th Edition official publication and the PRINCE2 6th Edition Foundation Exam. On completion of the Foundation course, students will be provided supporting Axelos membership services online.

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 6th Edition Foundation Examination.

Examination

This course pricing includes a voucher for the PRINCE2 6th Edition Foundation Exam, which is an online proctored exam through PeopleCert. Practice exam papers are provided in the course, and reviewed to assist in preparation.

The exam is:

  • One hour (60 minutes) duration

  • 60 multiple choice questions

  • Pass mark is 33 out of 60 (i.e. 55%)

  • Closed book

After passing the exam, each student’s certificate will be made available to them via PeopleCert.

It is highly recommended that you spend some time each evening of this course reviewing and consolidating what you’ve learned, to be well prepared for the exam.

Students are strongly encouraged to attend the Practitioner course immediately after the Foundation course. This is because the Practitioner exam requires strong current knowledge of the PRINCE2 6th Edition official publication. This knowledge is gained in the Foundation course and therefore is still fresh for assisting with passing the Practitioner exam.
