PRINCE2® 6th Edition Foundation & Practitioner Course Overview

PRINCE2® (Projects IN Controlled Environments) is a structured project management methodology primarily used in the public sector in the United Kingdom and Europe. It has since been adopted by many countries and organizations to help manage projects on a global scale. The 6th edition of the PRINCE2® Foundation & Practitioner course is designed to help individuals learn how to apply the principles, processes and themes of the PRINCE2® methodology to ensure successful delivery and completion of projects.

The PRINCE2® 6th edition Foundation & Practitioner course is composed of two distinct sections: Foundation and Practitioner. The Foundation syllabus covers core PRINCE2® principles, themes and processes, and is for anyone who needs to understand the basics of the method. It is a necessary prerequisite for those wishing to take the Practitioner course.
The Practitioner course focuses on the practical application of the method rather than the theory, teaching participants how to effectively manage projects using the PRINCE2® tools. It prepares participants for the challenging PRINCE2® Practitioner exam, which assesses their understanding and application of the method. Successful completion of the exam yields a practitioner certification, which is recognized globally.
