The course also teaches the design thinking approach, which can be used to develop innovative solutions for complex problems. The design thinking approach is clearly structured, iterative and leaves plenty of room for new perspectives. The course conveys the meaning, process and principles of the method.

In this course, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of the PRINCE2 methodology. You will learn all the key principles, topics and processes you need to apply PRINCE2 in real projects. Through practical examples and a structured approach, you will learn how to apply PRINCE2 flexibly to different project situations.

The course is aimed at project managers, team leaders, project participants and consultants who already have knowledge of project management and would like to expand their skills. The course is particularly suitable for people who have already acquired the PRINCE2 Foundation certification and would now like to deepen their skills in order to take the PRINCE2 Practitioner exam.

PRINCE2 is a globally recognized project management method and as more and more companies rely on standardized methods, PRINCE2-certified specialists are in high demand. This is particularly true in industries where structured project methods are important, such as IT, construction, finance, consulting and public administration.

Your PRINCE2 Practitioner certificate proves that you can apply the methodology practically and responsibly in complex projects.

Didactic concept

Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).

You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.
