PRINCE2® Practitioner

Aims

This programme is aimed at anyone involved in project work needing an in depth understanding of PRINCE2® up to the standard of the PRINCE2® Practitioner examination.  In particular, Project Managers, Team Leaders and Managers, Project Assurance and Project Support roles working in a PRINCE2® environment and those intending to play a role in a project conducted in accordance with PRINCE2® or advise an organisation on implementing PRINCE2®. Guidance is available from our Project Specialists for those uncertain about attending this programme as their first interface with project management.

Pre Course: Participants will be provided with a copy of the PRINCE2® Manual and a pre-programme study pack prior to attending days 1 to 4 and will be expected to complete at least four hours of directed self-study using these.

Days 1 -4: Formal presentation is blended with group and individual practical exercises to reinforce learning and enable participants to benefit from others’ experience whilst preparing for the examinations. There will also be time for discussion and clarification of any issues.  In addition, up to two hours of self-study on the evening of the first, second and third days will be required (prior knowledge and experience of PRINCE2® may lessen this time). Participants take the Foundation Examination at the end of day 3 and the fourth day is devoted to planning, preparing and practising for the Practitioner Examination. 

Day 5:After a break of approximately one week, participants will spend the morning doing final exam preparation and will take the Practitioner examination in the afternoon.

This programme includes a copy of the PRINCE2® Manual, slides, accompanying notes, pre-course study pack, Practitioner exam preparation pack and entry to the Foundation and Practitioner examination.

After passing the examination and becoming a Registered PRINCE2® Practitioner, all Practitioners are required to pass a short re-registration examination 3 to 5 years afterwards to maintain this status.
