Overview
Planning and managing projects to meet the agreed project objectives, resource, time
and cost constraints, and quality requirements is critical in today's competitive
environment. Project Management (PM) is a demanding and complex profession, with
numerous technical and management skills required. To add to the complexity of the
profession, Project Managers are expected to move across widely varying business
environments and adapt to their systems.
PRINCE2™ is a structured method of effective project management. It was officially
adopted by the UK Government in 1979. PRINCE™ was extensively developed by an
expert panel and by 1989 had become an established standard for best practice project
management. Today it still sets the benchmark for excellence in project management
methodologies. In 1996 the upgraded and totally redeveloped Version 2 was issued,
incorporating the lessons learned over the previous years of real life operations in a full
range of projects, from simple, short-term projects to highly complex, long-term,
multiple stage, high value projects. PRINCE2™ is now a de facto standard and is widely
used in the UK, Australia, Canada, Holland, South Africa, parts of the Middle East and
throughout other parts of the world. PRINCE2™ continues to be adopted by more
organisations and is growing rapidly in popularity and acceptance in both Government
and the business world.
PRINCE2™ is one of the main PM methodologies that provide a framework within
which many of the processes and outputs are defined. It is a well defined, process -
driven method for effective project management.
This course thoroughly covers the content of the PRINCE2™ Foundation syllabus and
prepares participants to pass the PRINCE2™ Foundation certification exam.
