QA Launches Enhanced PRINCE2 Course
London (UK), June 2012 - QA has announced that it is launching PRINCE2® training with enhanced courses that include the wider set of project-management skills required for successful project delivery. The new PRINCE2 courses incorporate soft skills and behaviors such as team and conflict management, leadership and motivation, and stakeholder engagement. This evolution of QA's PRINCE2 courses is based on consultation with industry experts and customers across a wide range of sectors.
Dr. Ian Clarkson, Head of PPM Product Development at QA explains, "Typical PRINCE2 training courses tend to focus on getting students through the Foundation and Practitioner exams and do not encompass how PRINCE2 is used in a business context, such as the necessary practical and soft skills to deliver projects successfully."
QA's classroom-based training includes the very latest accelerated learning techniques with the support of video clips, gaming, and engaging multimedia case studies. Key competencies are embedded into these case studies rather than just delivered as imparted knowledge, making the learning content more impactful.
The learning process is further supported by replacing pre-course reading materials with engaging eLearning content, which considerably reduces the time needed to prepare for the course. All delegates are given access to the relevant online materials to help them to prepare in their own time and around their current work commitments.
QA is offering FREE exam insurance for extra peace of mind on the five-day PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner course. Further benefits of the new QA PRINCE2 courses include access to QA's project-management experts for three months after the end of the course to give advice and guidance back in the workplace and a twleve-month subscription to Project Manager Today magazine.
QA offers the following PRINCE2 classroom courses:
- PRINCE2® Foundation and Practitioner (five days)
- PRINCE2® Foundation (now only two days)
- PRINCE2® Practitioner (extended to three days)
