Trainer Profile

All PRINCE2™ trainers have undergone the rigorous approvals process administered by the APM Group on behalf of the Office of Government Commerce (OGC). They are practising project managers with considerable experience in a wide range of industry sectors. The use of hybrid trainer-managers is of great benefit to delegates and ensures that illustration and anecdotes have up-to-date validity and that the training given, whilst being true to the syllabus is also pragmatic.

Duration

This course takes place over five days, including the optional PRINCE2™ Foundation and Practitioner examinations.

All Pitman Training Scotland courses are delivered using the latest PRINCE2™ examinations and syllabus.  The Foundation exam will be taken on the Wednesday afternoon and the Practitioner exam after an early lunch on the Friday. Delegates should be aware that considerable evening preparation and consolidation will be required by those that wish to pass the exams.

Pitman Training Scotland open courses are held throughout the year in central Glasgow and Edinburgh. Alternatively, client events can be arranged on-site or at a suitable venue nearby.
