This course is essential for anyone working in a PRINCE2 environment or needing to gain a recognised qualification within Project Management. Anyone wishing to formalise the way they run their projects and to put in place a common methodology will also benefit from this course.
Structured project management means managing the project in a logical, organised way, following defined steps. A structured project management method is the written description of this logical, organised approach, PRINCE2® (Projects IN Controlled Environments) is a structured project management method. So, PRINCE2® is a method for managing projects. It helps you work out who should be involved and what they will be responsible for. It gives you a set of processes to work through and explains what information you should be gathering along the way. But PRINCE2® doesn’t do the work for you; it cannot guarantee your projects will be successful.Good projects, which deliver quality results, on-time and within budget are dependent on the capability of people involved from Project Board down to individual team members.
