Classic PRINCE2. This video has great historical value.

Agree strong with jamsie comments: the value of Prince2 is indeed how well an individual can apply it to a 'blank sheet', with no prior experience to draw from. Foundation is designed to make sure you remember the basics, but Practitioner must show how well you can apply the program in a real world setting and that cannot be adequately tested in a multiple choice environment.

Hi clooven, if you get the Prince 2 book before the foundation exam revise it. If you dont you will struggle a bit because you need to learn the structure of the Prince 2 organisation.

"and that cannot be adequately tested in a multiple choice environment"
Perhaps you just can't think of ways to test that in a multiple choice environment. I've done several microsoft MCSD exams covering the Microsoft Solutions Framework. They managed to quite nicely design multiple choice exams to test exactly that. I don't see why it should be any more of a problem for the Prince 2 exams.
Just don't think traditional multiple choice.

PRINCE II good system? I dont think so
Please correct me Hetherw Terminal 5 maybe you think its OK, I don't, I am sure there was a risk and it was in the log. However no much was done. Because the risk was logged!
Wembely stadium, 2 years late
NHS IT project, years late
I dont think its a good system, its good to cover your back!
Its good for managers to have a log of when they said there is a problem.
How ever the project manager never did any thing because he was filling logs

Project Planners freezing! That is what project managers are paid for - to create a plan and act where there is nothing there before!!!
Anyone think this course is specifically designed for civil service/public sector plannners.... anyone??

@Barmorris Heathrow terminal 5 problems were caused by the knock on effect of staff not being able to park cars the morning it opened, the tight deadlines and security required for flights meant they quickly backed up and escalated. The project methodology cannot be to blame.
Wembley, like most large builds, was delayed due to Trade Unions, design changes, money and bad weather, delays are common in every project.
NHS Database was a contractor withdrawal, again, not the methodology

This more an advertisement of the methodology than explanation of its principles. Please change the description
