PRINCE2® Foundation & Practitioner course (PRINCE2)

Topics

Our PRINCE2 training is an accredited course for the project management approach PRINCE2 that is delivered by our partner Insights. The PRINCE2 training can be either booked as a 3-day Foundation training or combined with an additional 2-day Practitioner training. Therefore, the whole 5-day PRINCE2 training prepares for both PRINCE2 certificates, the Foundation and the Practitioner PRINCE2 certificate.
Overall, the PRINCE2 seminar places high importance on providing many opportunities for practical participation. Especially essential for a good and enjoyable PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner PRINCE2 training is the use of an illustrating case study. Both are important for each PRINCE training, which is why our trainers place a high priority on them.

In our PRINCE2 training, participants will learn everything about the PRINCE2 Framework and its four major parts: 7 PRINCE2 Principles, 7 PRINCE2 Processes, 7 PRINCE2 Themes as well as the adaptation to the project environment. Furthermore, the PRINCE2 training addresses explicitly the relationship between Business Case – the first of the PRINCE2 Themes -, programmes and the project as a whole.Mehr erfahren

The PRINCE2 training will first cover all the Principles related to PRINCE2. The first is Continued business justification, which means that a project must always anticipate a – documented and approved – benefit. Learn from experience means that experiences from previous projects are always documented and transferred to actual projects. The third principle addressed in the PRINCE2 training is Defined roles and responsibilities: Both must be defined for users, suppliers and the company. Manage by stages means that a PRINCE2 project is divided into stages so that risks and changes can be regulated specifically. According to Manage by exception, there are determined tolerance limits for the warrant of actions in each project goal. Principle six is Focus on products, i.e. the focus on the production of a qualitatively valuable product. The last principle is Tailor to suit the project: The adaption of the PRINCE2 Framework to the company specific environment, performance, and scope.

Of course, the PRINCE2 Processes are also covered in our PRINCE2 training.
The first Process is Starting up a project: Setting up the project management team structure in order to get the authority to initiate a project. In Initiating a project, a stable base for the project is built and documented to ensure the project benefit. Directing a project requires the project board to decide about suitable actions. The project manager is responsible for Controlling a stage: He delegates the work packages to qualified employees. These work packages will be processed afterwards in Managing product delivery and reported via checkpoint reports. The project manager is also responsible for Managing a stage boundary, including results preparation to be confirmed by the project board. The PRINCE2 training lastly addresses Closing a project: The project manager closes the project by delivering the product and evaluating the project.

Before the Foundation and Practitioner PRINCE2 training covers the examination technique of the PRINCE2 test, the PRINCE2 Themes are addressed: Business Case, Organization, Quality, Plans, Risk, Change and Progress.
All these subjects are covered during the Foundation PRINCE2 training. During the Practitioner PRINCE2 advanced training, our trainers deliver additional practical implications to transfer the gained knowledge into practice.
