Course Description
Our PRINCE2 Foundation is a 3 day course with the official APM Group PRINCE2 Foundation certification exam given at the end of the third day. It is expected from the participants that, additionally to the classroom training, they spend ca. 20 hours on pre-course preparation according to the trainer's instructions. The course consists of a well balanced mix of theory and practical exercises. It is led by our accredited PRINCE2 trainer - Mr. Stefan Ondek, PMP, P2RP, CSPM. It is given in partnership with the Accredited PRINCE2 Training Organisation (ATO) Stichting Partners in Business and draws from experience of more than 6.000 project management students trained. The course can be delivered in English, German, Czech or Slovak. The training materials are in English. The exam can be taken in English, French, German, Spanish, Czech, Danish, Polish or one of a few other languages.
Each of our PRINCE2 Foundation course delegates receives:
- An electronic Pre-Event Manual
- Our full colour Event Manual with texts, exercises, trial exams & presentation slides
- Access to our unique PRINCE2Train online e-learning environment
- The official OGC publication "PRINCE2 Pocketbook"*

A key element of the course is the PRINCE2 process model using the PRINCE2 Trigger Map. Delegates will be shown how the model is set up, how project activities and project roles are linked together and how PRINCE2 deals with exceptions that are imminent to occur in any kind of project.
At the end of the course delegates take the PRINCE2 Foundation certification exam (if delegates want to take the PRINCE2 Practitioner exam, they have to pass the PRINCE2 Foundation exam first).
