PRINCE2 Foundation

Foundation is the starting point for most candidates. It introduces the key concepts, principles, practices, and processes of PRINCE2.

The focus is on understanding the methodology and terminology.

Foundation is ideal if:

• You are new to project management.
• You have limited PRINCE2 knowledge.
• You need to understand how PRINCE2 works.

PRINCE2 Practitioner

Practitioner builds on the Foundation level and focuses on applying PRINCE2 in real project situations.

Practitioner is ideal if:

• You already hold the Foundation certification.
• You manage or lead projects.
• You need to tailor and apply PRINCE2 in practice.

For most candidates, the recommended route is to complete Foundation first and then progress to Practitioner.

Final Thoughts

PRINCE2 remains one of the most respected project management certifications available today.

Whether your goal is career development, improved project delivery, or gaining a recognised qualification, understanding the differences between Foundation and Practitioner is the first step.
