PRINCE2® (PRojects IN Controlled Environments) is a globally recognised and established project management method that offers a structured, scalable, and tailorable approach to project management. Its focus on governance, risk management, and benefits realisation sets it apart from other qualifications. By integrating agile concepts and emphasising tailoring, PRINCE2 7 is even more adaptable to diverse project environments.

PRINCE2 7 addresses changes in the project management sector and adapts to evolving working practices and technologies. It places a central focus on people management, embraces digital and data management and integrates sustainability into project performance. PRINCE2 7 is compatible with Agile, Lean and ITIL ®.

The PRINCE2 7 Practitioner course is a 2-day training offering. This course provides a platform and forum for the practice and internalisation of the concepts and methods within the syllabus plus an exam-focused guidance to enable delegates to confidently approach the PRINCE2 Practitioner examination. At the end of this course, you will have sufficient understanding to apply and tailor the method in different project environments.
