    What Is Project Management Fundamentals Training?Your Practical Starting Point in Project Delivery

    The Project Management Fundamentals (PMF) training is a foundation-level programme that teaches the core principles, processes and tools used to plan, run and close successful projects. Delivered by Invensis Learning across Kenya, it gives aspiring and practising professionals a clear, practical grounding in how projects move through initiation, planning, execution, monitoring and control, and closure. Over two days (16 hours) of interactive, instructor-led training, you cover the full project lifecycle alongside an overview of predictive (plan-based) methodologies, Agile frameworks and business-analysis approaches. There is no exam; the focus is on skills you can apply at work from day one, whether you are stepping into project work in Nairobi's tech scene, a construction programme or a financial-services change team. Because the course is method-neutral, it also gives you a strong base if you later pursue credentials such as CAPM, PMP or PRINCE2. On completion, you receive a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning that recognises your achievement.

    General

    What is Project Management Fundamentals training?

    Project Management Fundamentals training is a foundation-level course that teaches the core principles, processes and tools for planning, running and closing projects. It suits anyone whose work supports projects, from aspiring project managers to team leaders and coordinators, and focuses on practical skills you can use at work.

    Is this a certification course?

    No. This is a non-certification skills course with no exam. It builds practical project management capability, and on completion you receive a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning. It also gives you a strong base for later credentials such as CAPM, PMP or PRINCE2.

    Is this training worth it in Kenya?

    Yes. Project skills are in strong demand across Kenya's construction, IT, banking, telecoms and NGO sectors, driven by Vision 2030 and digital transformation. The course gives you transferable, on-the-job skills that employers value and that open doors to coordinator and project manager roles.

    Who should take this course?

    It suits aspiring project managers, team leaders, project coordinators, entry-level professionals, functional managers and anyone whose work directly or indirectly supports projects. Some project background helps but is not required.

    Do I need prior experience to join?

    No prior experience is required. The course starts from first principles, so beginners can follow it comfortably, while experienced professionals can use it to refresh their fundamentals.

    Pricing

    How much does the training cost in Kenya?

    Pricing varies by delivery format (live virtual or onsite corporate) and group size. Because there is no separate exam fee, your investment covers the training and materials only. Contact a learning advisor for a current quote for Kenya.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes instructor-led training, subject-matter-expert courseware, hands-on exercises, learner support and a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning. Request a quote to confirm what is included in your chosen format.

    Are there discounts for group or corporate bookings?

    Yes. We offer customised corporate and group training with volume-based pricing for teams and departments across Kenya. Ask about corporate pricing for a tailored quote for your organisation.

    Is there an exam or certification fee?

    No. This is a non-certification course with no exam, so there is no exam or certification fee. You only pay for the training itself.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major cards and bank transfers, with instalment options on selected plans. Talk to a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam at the end of the course?

    No. Project Management Fundamentals is a non-certification course with no exam. Learning is reinforced through lectures, interactive discussions, hands-on exercises and retrospective sessions rather than a test.

    On completing the programme you receive a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning that recognises your learning achievement and the practical skills you have gained.

    How is learning assessed?

    There is no formal graded exam. Instead, your understanding is built and reinforced through discussions, practical exercises and retrospective sessions during the two-day programme.

    Does this course lead to a certification?

    It does not award a certification, but it gives you a solid foundation. Many learners use it as a stepping stone toward credentials such as CAPM, PMP or PRINCE2 later in their careers.

    Will this course help me pursue PMP or CAPM later?

    Yes. The fundamentals you learn, including the project lifecycle, planning, risk and Agile basics, give you a strong base if you choose to pursue further credentials such as CAPM, PMP or PRINCE2.

    You learn project planning, scope, schedule, cost and resource management, risk and stakeholder management, governance basics and an overview of Agile and Scrum, all applicable to real projects at work.

    How long is the training?

    The course runs over two days (16 hours), delivered as full-day or extended half-day sessions, with lectures, interactive discussions and hands-on exercises.

    Does the course cover Agile as well as traditional project management?

    Yes. Alongside predictive (plan-based) methods, the course includes an overview of Agile, covering release planning and the Scrum process in brief, so you understand both approaches.
