Project Management - PRINCE2™ Practitioner
Course Objective
This course is designed to provide delegates with a thorough working understanding of the PRINCE2™ structured project management method. It will enable them to use the method when managing a PRINCE2™ project and to pass the PRINCE2™ Practitioner examination.
Delegate Profile
Some previous experience in a project environment is advisable. This might mean delegates are already managing projects and now require formal PRINCE2™ training, or that they are perhaps involved in some form of project support activity.
Topics Covered
The course equips delegates not just to understand the broad range of PRINCE2™ 's processes and components. The aim during the course is to achieve an effective balance between exam success and the need for skills-transfer.
Delegates are required to undertake preliminary study using our Pre-Course Workbook. Some further self-study is also expected during the evening of each classroom day.
The following topics will be examined:
- Business & Projects
- Project Management
- Overview of PRINCE2™ Processes and Components
- Project Start-up
- Organisation Component
- Business Case Components
- Project Scenarios
- Product-Based Planning
- Plans Component
- The Planning Process
- Management of Risk Component
- Initiating a Project
- Configuration Management Component
- Controls Component
- Controlling a Stage, Managing Product Delivery and Managing Stage Boundaries
- Change Control
- Quality in a Project Environment
- Closing a Project
- Benefits of PRINCE2™
The PRINCE2™ Foundation examination is taken at the end of the third day of the course. The Practitioner examination is taken on the fifth day.
Trainer Profile
Our trainers all have many years' experience in project management roles using PRINCE2™ . This means that they bring a wealth of hands-on expertise into the classroom, enabling them to guide delegates in a knowledgeable and practical manner.
Course Structure
This five-day course is spread over an elapsed period of two or three weeks. The first part of the course is held over four consecutive days, the last of which concentrates primarily on exam preparation. The fifth (exam) day is always held a week after the exam preparation day, thus providing time for final self-study revision.
