    The Skills You Will Build

    Method Fluency for Real Projects

    PRINCE2 Foundation training gives you knowledge of the PRINCE2 method at comprehension level, covering the four integrated elements: principles, people, practices and processes. By the end, you can contribute effectively as a member of any PRINCE2 project team.

    The Seven PRINCE2 Principles

    Apply the seven guiding principles, from continued business justification to managing by exception and tailoring to suit the project, that underpin every PRINCE2 project.

    The PRINCE2 People Capability

    Understand the People element introduced in PRINCE2 7, covering leadership, stakeholder engagement, team dynamics and the human side of change on projects.

    The Seven PRINCE2 Practices

    Work with business case, organising, plans, quality, risk, issues and progress, and the management products each practice produces across the project life cycle.

    The Seven PRINCE2 Processes

    Follow a project from Starting Up a Project through to Closing a Project, learning the objectives, activities and responsibilities within each of the seven processes.

    Tailoring PRINCE2 to Any Project

    Learn what tailoring means and why it matters, so you can scale the method to a project's size, complexity, risk and environment rather than applying it rigidly.
