The PRINCE2® Certifications are widely regarded as essential for managing projects using PRINCE2.

Furthermore, the training builds on your knowledge of PRINCE2, by showing you how to apply the method to the various styles of exam questions. You will be well prepared to pass the Foundation and the Practitioner exams during the course.
PRINCE2 is a method for managing projects, there is no hardware or software (apart from supporting tools), just a best practice approach to running projects in a consistent and referencable framework. PRINCE2 is flexible, adaptable and as much as a Project method can be, friendly. It may be similar to what you currently use, but what it does best is pull together common names and descriptions into a structure that anyone familiar with PRINCE2 can understand, regardless of background and Industry.
PRINCE2 can be applied to all sorts of projects, from the very small to the very large. Even projects lasting only a few days will benefit from selective application of PRINCE2 guidelines. The key to success with PRINCE2 is to remember it is highly configurable, and so can be adapted for all project types regardless of industry and marketplace.
This is 4.5 days training course and you will also receive online pre-course study materials, which summarise the most essential aspects of the PRINCE2 syllabus. This will allow you to prepare for the course in just 3-4 hours, instead of the 16+ hours required by many other training providers.
