    Frequently Asked QuestionsHere's everything you may ask...

    PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner is a combined project management certification governed by AXELOS and delivered by PeopleCert, based on the current PRINCE2 7th Edition (2023). Foundation confirms you understand the method, and Practitioner confirms you can apply and tailor it on real projects.

    General

    What is the PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner certification?

    PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner is a combined project management certification governed by AXELOS and delivered by PeopleCert, based on the current PRINCE2 7th Edition (2023). Foundation confirms you understand the method, and Practitioner confirms you can apply and tailor it on real projects.

    Is PRINCE2 certification worth it for professionals in Pittsburgh?

    Yes. PRINCE2 is recognized worldwide and valued by Pittsburgh employers in healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, and technology. Project Manager roles here average around $104,000 and PMO Manager roles near $145,770, and a recognized method helps you compete for them.

    Who should take the combined PRINCE2 course?

    The course suits project coordinators, project and program managers, business analysts, and IT professionals who want a structured, employer-valued method. It also fits PMP holders who want a complementary methodology often requested by employers.

    What is the difference between Foundation and Practitioner?

    Foundation tests knowledge and comprehension of PRINCE2 at an awareness level and has no prerequisites. Practitioner tests your ability to apply and tailor PRINCE2 to project scenarios and requires the Foundation certificate first. The combined program covers both.

    How long is the PRINCE2 certification valid?

    Both PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner are valid for three years. You can maintain the credential by earning CPD points or by re-sitting the exam. Confirm the current renewal options with PeopleCert.

    Pricing

    How much does PRINCE2 training cost in Pittsburgh?

    PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner training pricing depends on the format you choose, and full details are available on request. The PeopleCert exam fees are billed separately and are not part of the training fee. Request a quote to see current options.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The training fee typically includes PRINCE2 7 aligned courseware, practice questions, mock exams, downloadable templates, and learner support through both levels, plus a course completion certificate. Talk to a learning advisor to confirm what your plan includes.

    Are the exam fees included in the training price?

    Exam fees are set and billed by PeopleCert and vary by region and delivery channel, so they are usually quoted separately from the training. Confirm the current Foundation and Practitioner exam fees with PeopleCert before you book.

    Do you offer group or corporate discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customized schedules and volume-based pricing for project teams, PMOs, and departments. Contact us for a tailored group quote for your team in Pittsburgh.

    What payment methods and installment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, and offer installment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Exam

    What is the format of the PRINCE2 Foundation exam?

    The Foundation exam has 60 multiple-choice questions, runs for 60 minutes, and is closed book. The passing score is 60 percent, which is 36 out of 60 correct. It is delivered online with PeopleCert proctoring or at an authorized test center.

    What is the format of the PRINCE2 Practitioner exam?

    The Practitioner exam has 56 questions and sub-questions worth 70 marks, runs for 150 minutes, and is open book, with the PRINCE2 manual permitted. It uses scenario-based questions and the passing score is 60 percent, which is 42 out of 70 marks.

    Do I need to pass Foundation before Practitioner?

    Yes. The PRINCE2 Foundation certificate is a prerequisite for the Practitioner exam. In the combined program you typically sit Foundation first, then move on to the Practitioner content and exam.

    Where can I take the PRINCE2 exams?

    You can take both exams online through PeopleCert's proctored system, available 24/7, or at a PeopleCert authorized test center. Both are usually arranged as part of the combined training and exam package.

    What happens if I do not pass an exam the first time?

    You can re-sit a PRINCE2 exam if needed, and our training includes mock exams and question technique to help you pass with confidence. Confirm the current re-sit policy and fees with PeopleCert, and ask us about retake support on selected plans.

    Course Content

    What topics does the PRINCE2 course cover?

    The course covers the PRINCE2 7 method in full: the seven principles, the People capability, the seven practices (Business Case, Organizing, Plans, Quality, Risk, Issues, Progress), the seven processes, and how to tailor the method to real projects.

    Do I need prior experience to take this course?

    No prior experience is required for Foundation, which is open to all and beginner-friendly. Practitioner is designed for those applying PRINCE2 on projects, and the combined program supports you from the basics through to applied, scenario-based practice.

    Are practice tests and mock exams included?

    Yes. The program includes practice questions, full-length mock exams, and topic-wise quizzes for both levels, so you can find weak areas and build readiness for the Foundation and Practitioner formats.

    Is the courseware aligned to the latest PRINCE2 edition?

    Yes. The courseware is aligned to the current PRINCE2 7th Edition (2023) and the PeopleCert PRINCE2 7 syllabus, including the People capability and the updated practices and processes.

    Will I receive a certificate of completion and contact hours?
