You will gain a comprehensive understanding of the PRINCE2 methodology and learn all the important principles, topics and processes that 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.

This course is aimed at prospective specialists and managers in project management who wish to expand their knowledge of the PRINCE2® method. Above all, people from the IT sector and network administration such as managing directors, consultants, organizational developers and IT managers benefit from the additional qualification in IT project management with PRINCE2®.

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 7 Foundation and PRINCE2 7 Practitioner certificates prove 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.
