PRINCE2® Foundation Course
This Foundation Certificate course provides a comprehensive coverage of all aspects of the PRINCE2 methodology, including the 7 PRINCIPLES, 7 THEMES, 7 PROCESSES of PRINCE2 as well as sub-processes and techniques. Exercises are based on a real life case study to ensure that participants learn the practical application of PRINCE2 theory.
Course Overview
The objective of the PRINCE2® Foundation Level Course is to ensure that participants will acquire the skills and knowledge to be able to act as an informed member of a project management team using the PRINCE2® method within a project environment supporting PRINCE2®.
The course is based on the new 2017 syllabus to ensure maximum relevance. Through practice exams, workshops and evening study, you will gain the knowledge and skills required to take the PRINCE2® Foundation exam which is held at the end of the course.
On completion of the Foundation course, students will be provided supporting AXELOS membership services online.
PRINCE2® is a process-based approach for project management, providing an easily tailored and scalable method for the management of all types of projects, across industries, both locally and internationally. The continued international development of PRINCE2® examinations, training and course material is contributing significantly to the recognition of PRINCE2® as a truly relevant and international project management standard.
It is highly recommended that you spend some time each evening of this course reviewing and consolidating what you’ve learned, to be well prepared for the exam.
Target Audience
This qualification is aimed at project managers and aspiring project managers. 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.
This program is also ideal for anyone intending to become a PRINCE2 Consultant or PRINCE2 Trainer.
The PRINCE2 Foundation Certificate Course taken on its own is designed for those who are not necessarily aspiring for professional level knowledge but who nevertheless require a sufficient understanding of this project management methodology – such as people working on projects, people initiating projects, business representatives, team leaders, those with an interest in project management or who are considering moving into that field.
If you take the Foundation module on its own you may at a later date take the Practitioner module and complete the full program.

Exam Detail
By completing the Foundation course, participants will have sufficient knowledge to sit the PRINCE2 Foundation Examination. The exam is held on day 3 of the course and results are made available immediately after the exam. Students who pass this exam are then able to attend the PRINCE2 Practitioner course.
The PRINCE2 Foundation Examination is:
- Multiple choice questions
- 60 questions per paper
- 33 marks required (out of 60 available) to pass: 55%
- One hour (60 minutes) duration
- Closed book
Students are strongly encouraged to attend the Practitioner course immediately after the Foundation course. This is because the Practitioner exam requires strong current knowledge of the PRINCE2 6th edition manual. This knowledge is gained in the Foundation course and therefore is still fresh for assisting with passing the Practitioner exam.
