Topic Background:

PRINCE2® (Projects in Controlled Environments, version 2) is a project management methodology that prioritises control, organisation and quality management along with reliability and meeting project objectives. It is derived from a previous method called PROMPT II (Project Resource Organisation Management Planning Techniques), which was the government standard for IT project management. The name later changed to PRINCE which originally stood for “PROMPT II In the CCTA Environment” before changing to the acronym we know it as today.

The PRINCE methodology later became widely used outside the purely IT industry, prompting a general project management methodology to be produced and released as PRINCE2®. It has become one of the most popular project management methodologies and is now a standard for project management in multiple departments in UK Government.

Since its release, PRINCE2® has become the world’s most popular project management qualification with over 1 million exams taken, with the UK taking up over half of the world’s total.
