Description

This interactive e-learning course is ideal for anyone who wants to get an overview of PRINCE2® project management. It is designed to give a background into project management and how PRINCE2® methodologies are relevant to the running of successful projects. It also gives the candidate an understanding of what the Official PRINCE2® Foundation and Practitioner qualifications will offer them. It is ideal for anyone who wants to be involved in project management but is unsure of the PRINCE2® methodology.

PRINCE2® is internationally accepted as the leading “best practice”, process based project management approach in both the public and private sectors.

PRINCE2® stands for “PRojects IN a Controlled Environment” and the methodology can be applied regardless of project scale, type, organisation, geography or culture. By considering the key variables involved in any project (costs, timescales, quality, scope, risk and benefits), it allows the project manager to address the planning, delegation, monitoring and the control of the project using a framework of processes and themes.

Accredited PRINCE2® personnel are highly sought after and many organisations consider this to be a minimum requirement for anyone looking to contribute to projects. In addition to organisations benefitting from far better controlled and managed projects, the individuals who understand and can implement the methodology have far higher chances of success in their careers.

The prospects of a certified person are endless and for a small investment you have the opportunity to open up a host of career opportunities. As an Official Licensed Affiliate, we offer Accredited PRINCE2® Foundation and the Practitioner qualifications with the option to do the training and exams either through e-learning or at a classroom with many locations and dates available, please speak to us for more information......

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
