PRINCE2® Course (Foundation and Practitioner Certification Included)

Our 5-day, focused approach to PRINCE2® exam preparation and certification is perfect for anyone who wants to gain an understanding of PRINCE2® and achieve both certifications in a short time-frame.

PRINCE2® is one of the best-known and widely utilised project management methodologies in the world. Understanding how to use it and holding a valid PRINCE2® certification is essential for many organisations.

Our 5-day live virtual (online) course is intensive, but it’s one of the most efficient and effective ways to begin learning about PRINCE2® while achieving both the Foundation and Practitioner certifications at the same time.

PRINCE2® Guidance from Experts

Our PRINCE2® courses are delivered by trainers with extensive experience. They will guide you through the study and exam preparation process skilfully, welcoming any questions you may have and offering guidance where needed.

Understanding of PRINCE2®

Although this course is primarily focused on preparing you to sit and pass your PRINCE2® exams, part of that equips you with a strong knowledge of the PRINCE2® framework.

Dedicated Timeframe – Exceptional Results

We offer this intensive approach because it works really well.

So much of building confidence in a project management methodology lies in actively applying it to live projects.

This training aims to equip you with the tools you need to go forth and begin gaining that experience: a foundational knowledge of the framework and valid certifications in the PRINCE2® methodology.

Objectives

Our main objectives for this training are:

• That each participant will begin to grasp the workings and application of the PRINCE2® framework.
• To prepare students for studying and passing their PRINCE2® exams.
• To hold the Foundation and Practitioner exams in a focused environment.

What’s Included?

Our PRINCE2® course includes:

• 5 days of live virtual classroom training with an experienced PRINCE2® trainer.
• Foundation and Practitioner exams.
• Foundation and Practitioner certification.

The official AXELOS manual, “Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2^® publication, Sixth Edition, AXELOS Limited, Copyright 2017” is the only additional resource you will need to purchase separately. We can advise on the best stockists for this manual.

Why PRINCE2®?

PRINCE2® is hugely popular. It is used in almost every country worldwide and by organisations in every industry. It is widely utilised in government agencies, particularly in Ireland and the UK.

One of the reasons for its popularity is its unusual combination of structure and flexibility. It can be tailored to suit many different sizes and style of project. It can also be combined with other project management methodologies, such as Agile.

What Can I Expect from This PRINCE2® Course?

This is a very intensive course that achieves excellent results.

You can expect to dedicate most of your time for the 5 days of training to PRINCE2® learning, study, and exam preparation.

To get the most from training and set yourself up to pass both exams, we always advise that students allocate time in the evenings during training for study and exam preparation.

Who is this course designed for?

This course is for anyone who wants to put their project management career on the map with both PRINCE2® certifications.

As you’ll read in the entry requirements section, although previous project management experience is helpful, it is not essential.

Want to Get Started with Foundation Only?

Not everyone is ready to jump into both certifications immediately. That’s why we offer both certifications as standalone courses.

Some of our delegates attend the 3-day Foundation course first, take a gap to begin applying PRINCE2® to their work, then return to complete the further 2 days for Practitioner.

Already Have a PRINCE2® Foundation Certification?

If you have a PRINCE2® Foundation Certification based on the 2017 Edition of “Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2^® publication, Sixth Edition, AXELOS Limited, Copyright 2017″, you may be eligible to attend our Practitioner only training (2 days). Our experienced consultants will take you through the process when you get in touch with us.

Maintaining Your PRINCE2® Certifications

It’s great to know that your Foundation certificate will never need to be renewed.

You will need to maintain your Practitioner certification every 3 years, either through a paid membership with Axelos (the owners of PRINCE2®) or by re-sitting the exam.
