PRINCE2 training

Dbi Consulting Ltd is an accredited PRINCE2 training and consultancy services provider.

Why?

PRINCE2 is the government sponsored Project Management methodology, which has become the de facto standard within public sector organisations. It is now becoming widely used in the private sector.

Our trainers have a proven track record in managing projects and are skilled in the use of the PRINCE2 methodology. As well as being trainers they are active Project Management Consultants and have demonstrated an ability to create and maintain effective project teams committed and motivated to deliver the required products to the business.

What is it?

The methodology is suited to both IT and non-IT projects, of all sizes and degree of complexity. We recognise the importance of providing effective and timely training to meet the needs of managers and staff who will be involved with the implementation of PRINCE2.

We have developed a series of training courses that will give your staff the necessary awareness and competence.

How would I benefit?

PRINCE2 provides proven techniques and processes producing high quality products. This allows the opportunity to implement a standard methodology across all projects and, perhaps, unified project support facilities for all projects.

What does it involve?

The training options are:

• PRINCE2 Awareness - This one-day seminar an introduction and insight into using PRINCE2. It also demonstrates the terminology of the PRINCE2 2009 project management method. This course is only available for group bookings
  
• PRINCE2 for Project Boards - A one-day course for staff who are likely to be involved with PRINCE2 projects as Project Board members. It covers the Board's responsibilities and roles, the Board processes and the relationship between Projects and Programmes
  
• PRINCE2 Foundation - The three-day course covers the underlying principles of PRINCE2 and how they contribute to project success. It leads to the formal PRINCE2 Foundation exam and certificate. The course is aimed at measuring whether a candidate could act as an informed member of a project management team, on a project using the PRINCE2 methodology within an environment supporting PRINCE2. On completion of the course, delegates will have sufficient knowledge and understanding of PRINCE2 to sit the PRINCE2 Foundation Examination
  
• PRINCE2 Practitioner - A two-day course for experienced project managers already holding (or who have just obtained) the Foundation certificate. It builds on the Foundation certificate, linking the principles, processes and themes to a project scenario. It provides the opportunity to sit the Practitioner exam at the end of the second day.

Recent feedback from candidates includes:

"Very comprehensive and informative.  Felt like a couple of points were rushed through due to time constraints.  Overall, extremely useful and helpful."
