As a natural follow-up to the theory-based Foundation course, this course is focused on applying the theory to a real-life case study. Students will work alone or in pairs as they create many of the management products needed to manage the case study project. Through this application, they will be preparing themselves not only for the Practitioner exam but also for applying the method on the projects back in their workplace.
This is the second of two certification courses on the PRINCE2 project management methodology. Its aim is to provide students with the skills needed to apply PRINCE2 theory to practical scenarios and prepare them for the Practitioner certification exam.
Course Requirements
We cover the full PRINCE2 Practitioner syllabi as defined by APMG to prepare students to take the Practitioner exam. To receive the greatest benefit from the course and be properly prepared for the exam, significant pre-course and evening work will be required of each student.
This course may be taken alone or in combination with the 3-day Foundation course.
Certification Requirements
The Practitioner Exam is administered after lunch on the second day of the course. It is a 3-hour open book scenario-based exam designed to test the students ability to apply the PRINCE2 methodology in a working environment.
Students must have passed the PRINCE2 Foundation exam to attend this course and take the Practitioner exam. If you have special needs and feel you are unable to sit for a 3-hour exam, please contact us upon receipt of your confirmation e-mail to discuss options to accommodate your needs. Also, should you require special class setups due to physical inabilities, such as vision loss or hearing loss, please contact us to discuss how we can meet your special needs.
