Additional Information
For those wishing to consolidate the Foundation concepts, the choice is between sitting the 5-day Practitioner course, or one of the two variants of the Conversion course. Where delegates have had a significant amount of time since attending the Foundation course, or require a full refresher, or attended the older versions of the Foundation (prior to the 6th of July 2009), then the 5 day Practitioner may prove to be the wiser investment.
For those preparing for the Practitioner examination, where a quick reminder of the method and practise in the exam technique is all that is required, then the 2 day Conversion course is available. The 2 day Conversion course is also suitable for delegates re-sitting the examination or renewing their qualifications. Where clients feel that something in between these two extremes is more appropriate, the 3 day Conversion course is available for Closed Courses only.
PRINCE2 has been designed as a project management method for use on any type of project. However, it does not cover the use of very many techniques, so we are pleased to offer a course that picks up where PRINCE2 stops - Project Planning and Control Techniques (PPCT). This course offers a practical, hands-on approach to a number of different techniques in everyday use.
PRINCE2 does not cover the use of any supporting tools, therefore we have adapted the Project Planning and Control Techniques course to include the use of the latest version of Microsoft Project.
