Overview

The Combined course blends our Foundation course and Practitioner seminar. Each participant is first provided with a solid Foundation in PRINCE2 concepts, and is then advanced to a Practitioner understanding of how to apply PRINCE2 in realistic project scenarios and adapt PRINCE2 to different project environments.

Our courses are written against the new PRINCE2:2017 release.

Our eLearning course is a self-guided, interactive journey through the PRINCE2 syllabus.
