Is PRINCE2 in Demand?
PRINCE2 Foundation is a trusted baseline for project roles across Christchurch and the wider Canterbury region, valued by public sector agencies, construction and infrastructure firms, healthcare providers and a growing hi-tech cluster. As organisations mature their project offices and the city's regeneration and technology sectors keep investing, employers increasingly look for people who can work to a recognised method. Demand runs from project coordinator and support roles up to project and programme manager, and here is what the local market is telling us right now.
