Purpose of the PRINCE2 6th Edition Practitioner Certification

PRINCE2 Practitioner certification is suitable for anyone managing projects. This could be as part of a formal project management function or a role which involves project management as part of day-to-day work. The Practitioner certification aims to confirm that you have sufficient knowledge and understanding to apply and tailor the method in a range of different project environments and scenarios.

Attaining your Practitioner qualification is only one part of becoming a successful and effective project manager. It is important to ensure that you supplement this with real-life experience working on projects, in addition to investing in personal professional development and wider training.

PRINCE2 6th Edition Practitioner Training

Typically, classroom training for PRINCE2 Practitioner lasts one and a half days and the examination takes place at the end of the training (this will vary depending on training provider). However, you can self-study for the Practitioner exam and you may also choose to take the training in another format such as distance learning. Training is delivered by Axelos' Accredited Training Organizations (ATOs) who set their own rates, so prices will vary.

This certification is aimed at project managers, aspiring project managers and anyone who manages projects. It is also relevant to other key staff involved in the design, development and delivery of projects, including: Project Board members (e.g. Senior Responsible Owners), Team Managers (e.g. Product Delivery Managers), Project Assurance (e.g. Business Change Analysts), Project Support (e.g. Project and Programme Office personnel) and operational line managers/staff.

Frequently asked questions

You’ve got questions & we’ve got answers

PRINCE2 (Projects IN Controlled Environments) is a project methodology using the input from thousands of projects and Project Managers and their teams.

The method can be applied to any project, regardless of it’s size, industry or project type and can be tailored to the specific needs of each project undertaken. PRINCE2 uses 7 Themes, 7 Principles and 7 Processes to ensure the project remains truly PRINCE2, ensuring best practices are implemented.
PRINCE2 was first developed in 1989 (then called PROMPT) by the CCTA (Central Computer and Telecommunications Agency) in order to manage IT projects. Later the method was enriched and altered to a generic project management model to be used by the UK government in their projects and the method became known as PRINCE.

The 2nd version, which is the method as we know it today, was unveiled in 1996 and the name was changed to PRINCE2, flowing over into the private sector. In 2009 PRINCE2 underwent a revamp involving the input of about 150 organisations that had used the method.

The ownership rights to PRINCE2 were transferred from the HM Cabinet Office to AXELOS in 2013
Only APMG International-authorised training providers such as Robust IT may deliver PRINCE2 training.
It is. The PRINCE2 courses are suited to anyone interested in project management, whether they have experience or are just starting out.
PRINCE2 is adaptable and can be used in conjunction with any other project management method.
