This course demonstrates the
practical use of PRINCE2 by walking through the timeline of a Case Study
project, showing how the PRINCE2 approach, processes and key documents can
be tailored and used. Delegates will be encouraged to discuss tailoring
and scalability in relation to their own projects, and will learn how all
the PRINCE2 processes interlink.
This course is suitable for
anyone wanting to understand the key points of how PRINCE2 works, without
the requirement to pass the PRINCE2 examinations.
No prior knowledge of PRINCE2 is assumed. People
wishing to subsequently attend a PRINCE2 Foundation + Practitioner
examination course will find this event a very useful preparation. People
who have already passed their PRINCE2 exams will find the course
invaluable for showing how PRINCE2 can be applied in practice.
The course follows a realistic
Case Study project from early ideas right through to closure, experiencing
plenty of real world challenges on the way! Delegates will have plenty of
opportunity to discuss tailoring and implementation issues with an expert.
