Description
PRINCE2 is an internationally recognised best practice project management methodology. Since its inception in 1989, it has been widely adopted and successfully implemented throughout both the public and private sectors around the world.
This course teaches delegates the principles, techniques and processes required for successful project management and how they are applied in the real world.
Course Outline:
Both the Foundation and Practitioner elements of the course are conducted through interactive group study using practical examples and activities. Group review of sample exam papers helps delegates to prepare for both the Foundation and Practitioner exams.
Delegates are expected to spend time reading and reviewing course materials each evening throughout the course.
At Foundation level, delegates are introduced to the PRINCE2 methods. On passing the Foundation exam, delegates move on to Practitioner level. The emphasis is now on the application of PRINCE2 principles and practices in the real world. The topics covered at Foundation Level are reviewed and using two case studies supplied by the examination board, delegates are given an understanding of how PRINCE2 is applied and how it can be tailored to the project environment.

- Full colour, high quality accredited courseware
