PRINCE2® Project Management Foundation (Basic certification for the current PRINCE2® 7)

Our PRINCE2® Foundation Level Training course teaches the basics of the internationally recognized PRINCE2® project management method in three days. You will gain an overview of the structure and practical application of PRINCE2® in everyday project work.

Contents of PRINCE2® Foundation Training

PRINCE2® (Projects in Controlled Environments) is one of the world’s most recognized project management methodologies. It provides a structured, process-based approach that helps ensure projects are planned, managed, and completed effectively — regardless of size, type, or industry.

The method defines clear roles, responsibilities, and decision-making points, emphasizing control, transparency, and continuous learning throughout the project lifecycle.

PRINCE2® is widely used in both the public and private sectors, offering organizations a proven framework to deliver successful projects on time, within budget, and to the desired quality standards.

content & syllabus

The PRINCE2® core principles

The 7 PRINCE2® core principles are: 

  1. continuous business justification, 
  2. learning from experience,
  3. roles and responsibilities, 
  4. control by management phases, 
  5. control by exception, 
  6. product orientation, 
  7. adapting to the project environment.

The PRINCE2® practices and processes

The project manager should master the 7 PRINCE2® practices in order to successfully execute their project. The PRINCE2® processes describe the necessary activities for planning, delegating, monitoring, and controlling a project.

The PRINCE2® management products

PRINCE2® describes 26 different templates of documents that can be used to control the project. These are so-called baseline products, which have a defining character, as well as records and reports.

Applying PRINCE2® in practice

Through practical exercises and examples, you will learn how to adapt the application possibilities of PRINCE2® to your own work. Our trainers have enough experience to explain your individual questions from practice and link them to the solution approaches according to PRINCE2®.
