e-PRINCE2® for the Public Sector

The world-class standard in project management

It has become ever more evident for public sector projects, big and small, to be delivered on time, to the required specification and within budget. Project management has become a necessity in the public sector. PRINCE2 for the Public Sector is an examination-based programme that gives delegates accreditation at PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner Levels.

In association with Benchmark and accredited by APMG-International the programme provides in-depth training on professional project management, helping public sector staff meet project objectives within project tolerances:

• Foundation Level equips those studying the course with a detailed knowledge of the methodology, working through the project lifecycle from pre-project preparation to project closure.
• Practitioner Level builds on the participants’ knowledge of the structure and content of PRINCE2 and progresses this to an understanding of the practical application of the methodology.
