About This Course

This advanced course moves beyond understanding PRINCE2 terminology to focus on applying the method within realistic project situations. Participants will consider how PRINCE2 can support effective decision-making, governance, planning and control across different project environments.

The course explores the practical application of the seven principles, practices and processes, together with project roles, people management, communication, sustainability and digital information. Participants will learn how to tailor the method to suit a project’s size, complexity, risk and delivery approach.

Prerequisites : Participants must hold an accepted project-management qualification before taking the Practitioner examination. These include PRINCE2® Project Management Foundation (Version 7), an eligible earlier PRINCE2 Foundation or Practitioner qualification, PMP®, CAPM®, PPQ, PMQ or IPMA Levels A–D.
