PRINCE2 7 is widely considered the leading project management method. Many companies and governmental organisations are using the method to deliver change and develop new products or services. This PRINCE2 online course provides a tried and tested method from which organisations and their project team can benefit. PRINCE2 is a waterfall method of project management and compliments other products on our IPSO FACTO course schedule.
The latest update from PeopleCert will help organisations understand how the fundamental principles of PRINCE2 provide the basis of good project management. It also emphasizes how the method can be tailored to give an appropriate fit to a multitude of project sizes, types and environments.

Many projects today involve collaboration across organisational or even national boundaries. PRINCE2 provides a universal language that unites the project team with external suppliers and colleagues in other countries.

Suitable for project managers, team managers, project support and assurance staff, and managers from any discipline, and is particularly aimed at people who are responsible for managing projects. The PRINCE2 method is flexible and adaptable for any type and size of project, and offers an excellent management foundation for any member of staff.

The key objectives of this PRINCE2 Practitioner course are:
Setting the scene for a structured approach to managing all projects; project success criteria; the model of the PRINCE2 method including the integrated elements of principles, processes, themes and tailoring.
PRINCE2 focuses on key processes needed for successful project management which must be present, but may be ‘tailored’ to reflect the complexity, scope and risks faced by the project. Our PRINCE2 Process Model will be used to help delegates understand and appreciate what should be done to manage each project, why it should be done and when in the project lifecycle.
