The PRINCE2 Foundation exam
is aimed at measuring whether a candidate could act as an informed member of a project management team on a project using the PRINCE2 method, within an environment supporting PRINCE2. To this end the candidate needs to be able to show he or she understands the principles and terminology of the method, specifically:
- The purpose & responsibilities of all roles.
- The 7 principles, 7 themes, 7 processes, and the Product-based Planning and Quality Review techniques.
- Which management products are input to, output from, and updated in the seven processes.
- The purpose of all management products and the composition of the Business Case, Product Descriptions, Issue Report and the Issue, Risk and Quality Registers.
- The relationship between principles, processes, themes, deliverables & roles within a PRINCE2 project.
You will obtain preliminary exam results immediately after you pass your online exam.
English PRINCE2 exams are available in the 6th edition only. Some other language mutations of PRINCE2 exams still are and will remain available in the old - 5th edition. However, we recommend the new version of exams to all those whose English is sufficient. They have fewer questions than the old ones, with the same total time available to answer them. Further, PRINCE2 6th edition exam certificates are marked as such, proving that you know the most current version of PRINCE2.
This is how a genuine internationally recognised AXELOS certificate, granted for passing the PRINCE2 Foundation exam, looks like:
