    Which project management training is best for beginners?

    Project Management Fundamentals is among the most popular starting points for people new to the field. It covers the essential concepts, the project lifecycle and an agile overview, giving beginners a rounded, practical foundation before any specialist credential.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes instructor-led training across the five core modules, structured courseware created by subject matter experts, hands-on exercises and discussions, and a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning. Ask a learning advisor for the full inclusions on your chosen format.

    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.

    Is there any long-term cost to maintain what I learn?

    No. Because this is a non-certification course, there is no renewal fee or maintenance requirement. The skills you gain are immediately applicable and do not expire, so the value continues well beyond the training.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam at the end of the course?

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

    What will I receive after completing the training?

    You receive a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning that recognizes your learning achievement. It is not a certification from an external body, but it confirms you have completed the program and built the fundamentals.

    How is my learning reinforced during the course?

    Your learning is reinforced through a mix of trainer-led lectures, interactive discussions, hands-on exercises and retrospective sessions. This practical approach helps you apply the concepts to real workplace situations rather than just memorize theory.

    Does this course lead to a formal credential?

    Not directly. The course is a foundation-level skills program, not tied to any accrediting body. It gives you a strong base if you later choose to pursue credentials such as CAPM, PMP or PRINCE2.

    What is the next step after this training?

    Many learners use the fundamentals as a springboard toward further study, such as CAPM, PMP or PRINCE2. Others apply the skills directly at work to plan and run projects with more confidence and structure.

    How long is the training and how is it delivered?

    The course runs over two days (16 hours), delivered as live virtual instructor-led sessions or onsite for teams. It uses lectures, interactive discussions and hands-on exercises to keep the learning practical and engaging.

    Are there hands-on exercises and materials included?

    Yes. The program includes hands-on exercises, interactive discussions and retrospective sessions, along with structured courseware and learning resources created by subject matter experts to support your understanding.

    Does the course cover agile as well as traditional methods?

    Yes. Alongside predictive, plan-based methods, the course includes an agile projects overview covering agile release planning and the Scrum process, so you understand how both approaches work and when each is used.
