Invensis Learning is a Peoplecert Accredited Training Organization (2778) in Dortmund, approved to deliver official PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner Certification training using accredited courseware and standards.
The PRINCE2 certification in Germany is delivered in two exams: Foundation and Practitioner. Foundation tests your understanding of the method; Practitioner tests your ability to apply and tailor PRINCE2 in a project scenario. Both exams are administered by PeopleCert online or at approved test centers.
PRINCE2 is a widely recognised marker of structured project capability across Dortmund and Germany, valued by logistics, IT services, energy, engineering and financial-services employers that run complex, high-stakes projects. As enterprises accelerate digital transformation and the energy transition, employers increasingly ask for a proven method, and certified practitioners are still in short supply. Demand spans project coordinator to programme and PMO leadership, and here is what the local market is telling us right now.
PRINCE2 is more than a certificate. It is a career multiplier for project professionals in Dortmund. Join those who deliver structured, on-strategy projects with confidence. Start your journey today.
Dortmund's project market is expanding with logistics, digital transformation and the energy transition, and employers increasingly separate certified project leaders from the rest. Here is which side of that line you want to be on.

This combined programme, our PRINCE2 Foundation & Practitioner Certification Course, takes you from understanding the PRINCE2 method to applying and tailoring it under exam conditions. By the end, you can plan, govern and control a project the PRINCE2 way and prove it across both certification levels.
You will learn how the seven PRINCE2 principles, from continued business justification to manage by exception and tailor to suit the project, guide every decision on a controlled project, and how to spot where they are missing.
Master the People element introduced in PRINCE2 7, including leadership styles, stakeholder engagement, team dynamics and change management, so you can handle the human side of delivery alongside the method.
Build working knowledge of the seven practices, covering business case, organising, plans, quality, risk, issues and progress, plus the management products that support each one across the project life cycle.
Learn to direct, manage and deliver a project through all seven processes, from Starting Up a Project to Closing a Project, and how the activities and responsibilities connect end to end.
Practise tailoring principles, practices and processes to the scale, complexity and risk of a real project, including how PRINCE2 works alongside agile and hybrid delivery approaches.
Prepare for the closed-book Foundation exam and the open-book, scenario-based Practitioner exam with practice questions, mock tests and manual-navigation technique for exam day.
