PRINCE2 is born out of the UK public sector and is a de facto UK Standard for project management. It’s adoption is especially popular in Europe and Australia, but its usage is all over the world. Its focus on the continuous business case justification and products gives it widespread appeal to any business that is first concerned with the pragmatics of projects and not just the activities that achieve them. PRINCE2 is flexible; organizations can apply PRINCE2 to any type of project, any scale and to any industry.

Many recommend to achieve certifications and/or experience in both PRINCE2 and PMP, even in the North American market, which is primarily focused on the latter. Advocates of PRINCE2 are impressed by its more prescriptive approach than PMP and its constant focus on the Business Case which is reviewed throughout the lifecycle. This and its orientation around product-based planning and quality have made it an enduring and increasingly successful project management system worldwide.

What is Prince2 Certification Exam?

Prince2 Certification exam is an examination on PRINCE project management method. PRINCE is not related to the actual Prince but PRINCE stands for PRojects IN Controlled Environment.

PRINCE project management method was initially developed in 1989 by the Central Computer and Telecommunications Agency (CCTA) as a UK Government standard for information systems (IT) project management; however, it soon became regularly applied outside the purely IT environment. PRINCE2 was released in 1996 as a generic project management method. PRINCE2 has become increasingly popular and is now a de facto standard for project management in the UK.
