PRINCE2 Foundation

PRINCE2 Foundation

About the course:
PRINCE2® is the project management methodology in the UK and is being increasingly adopted in Europe and around the world.

Organisations using PRINCE2® are now demanding that their project staff hold the PRINCE2® Foundation qualification. This gives them the assurance that their projects will be effectively managed under PRINCE2®, and also provides a valuable addition to the CV of the holders of this qualification.

City Business offer the PRINCE2® Foundation course in association with SPOCE Project Management Ltd. The PRINCE2® Foundation course is designed by experts to give you the best possible preparation for exam success and allow you to progress to the PRINCE2 Practitioner qualification later on.
