PRINCE2 PM v7 Foundation Course
PeopleCert PRINCE2 Project Management Version 7 Foundation Certification Training
PRINCE2 Foundation: Probably the most useful certification in Australasia
Click for more on PRINCE2 in Australasia…
In almost all of Australasia, the industry standard in Project Management frameworks is PeopleCert’s PRINCE2. The current version is version 7, as of September 2023. Full certification requires both Foundation (this page), and Practitioner, which can be completed in two stages together or separately.
PRINCE2 Foundation is the best first step for new PM’s or people working in project teams. It establishes all the process knowledge needed.
If you’re a PM holding a full PRINCE2 Version 6 certificate, it is possible to skip Foundation and go straight to the Version 7 Practitioner course.

The course is delivered both in-person and remotely, depending on each learner’s choice. Typically the room is made up of a mix of people in physical attendance and attendance via Teams.
You instructor will be an extensively industry-experienced Project Manager, holding a variety of certifications. This allows great cross-examination of the practical application of frameworks and methods.
The course readies you for the exam by going through mock questions and discussing technique to analyse the best answers. The exam itself is sat in your own time, up to a year after the course (but we recommend doing it asap). The exam is 60 minutes, 60 questions, 60% pass mark.

Five Reasons Why

Whether you are self-funding, or continuing a workplace-sponsored PDP (Professional Development Plan), here are five great arguments for you — and perhaps also your line manager, capability lead or HR department — for adding a PRINCE2 Practitioner certificate to your portfolio:

Ready-made vocabulary and process knowledge that other PM’s and teams are already using, even in a PRINCE2-adjacent world
2
Instantly moves you through any screening processes that might automatically rely on some level of PRINCE2 certificate
3
Insight into how PRINCE2 projects are realistically run, through exposure to real-world practices and lifelike Australasian scenarios
4
Great awareness of how the PRINCE2 framework is used to support a variety of delivery methods, such as Agile Scrum, Kanban etc.
