Online PRINCE2 Foundation & Practitioner Training

What makes our PRINCE2 course different?

We don’t just want you to pass the PRINCE2® exams, we want to make you a great project manager. That’s why our 5-day PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner course is different.

• Prepare more efficiently with highly engaging video-based pre-course learning.
• Gain a deeper understanding of the PRINCE2 methodology with our unique interactive learning.
• Go beyond the PRINCE2 methodology during the course to become a more effective project manager.
• We guarantee exam success on your publicly scheduled course or your money back with our enhanced PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner course exam insurance.
• PRINCE2 Exam Insurance means you will be able to come on the same public course at a later date to resit your exam. If you fail the same exam three times, we will refund your course fee. You must request your exam re-sit within 90 days of completion of your course.

About your course

PRINCE2 is one of the world’s most widely used project management methods. Based on best practice, the method can be applied to any project irrespective of its size, industry sector, geographic location or culture. This course provides a definitive understanding of PRINCE2. We cover its four integrated components:

• Principles
• Themes
• Processes
• Project environment

We also look at management roles required in a PRINCE2 project and what management products must be created to ensure the project is delivered in a coordinated, consistent and transparent manner.

We help you to not only know PRINCE2, but also apply and tailor it for your projects. The course has been designed by award-winning instructional designers to ensure that it provides an interactive and engaging introduction to PRINCE2. Our experienced PRINCE2 experts explain the method through a wide range of individual and group exercises, case-study application, learning games and practice exam questions.

Target audience

Project managers, team leaders, and anyone aspiring to such a role.

here are no formal prerequisites for this course but learners would benefit from some experience of working in projects prior to attendance.

Pre-course reading

• You will be provided with a number of short activities to complete, including access to interactive video-based learning, which will help you prepare for the course. These activities are expected to take approximately six hours to complete (although you may wish to spend longer to help you prepare more effectively).
• The benefits of pre-course reading are outlined in this short, entertaining animation:
• At Foundation level, demonstrate that you understand and can recall the various components of the PRINCE2 method.
• At Practitioner level, demonstrate that you can apply and tailor the PRINCE2 method to a real project.
• Explain and apply the PRINCE2 principles.
• Explain the purpose of the seven PRINCE2 themes and describe how they are applied to a project.
• Describe each step of the PRINCE2 journey, explaining the activities required to guide a project throughout its lifecycle.
• Create the recommended PRINCE2 management products which include baselines, records and reports.

Days 1 and 2 of the course focus on the components of the method, with days 3 to 5 addressing how the method might be applied and tailored to a real-life project. Delegates should note that evening work will be assigned, which is not expected to exceed three hours per night.

Specific course content will include:

Principles

The seven PRINCE2 principles provide the framework for managing the project and are built on good practice developed from successful and failed projects.
