    Exam

    What is the format of the PRINCE2 Practitioner exam?

    The Practitioner exam is open book, with the PRINCE2 Managing Successful Projects manual permitted. It uses scenario-based, objective-test questions that require analysis and judgement rather than recall, based on the PRINCE2 7 Practitioner Syllabus.

    How many questions are on the exam and how long is it?

    The exam has 56 questions and sub-questions worth 70 marks, and you have 150 minutes (2 hours 30 minutes) to complete it. It is delivered online via PeopleCert OnVUE proctoring or at an authorised test centre.

    What is the passing score for PRINCE2 Practitioner?

    The pass mark is 60%, which means at least 42 out of 70 marks. Because questions are scenario-based, focus on applying the method and navigating the manual efficiently rather than memorising answers.

    What are the prerequisites for the Practitioner exam?

    You need PRINCE2 Foundation, or an accepted equivalent such as PMP, CAPM or IPMA Level A to D. There is no formal work-experience requirement, though the credential is designed for practising or aspiring project managers. Verify current equivalents at peoplecert.org.

    What if I do not pass the exam on the first attempt?

    You can resit the PRINCE2 Practitioner exam; a reexamination fee applies and is paid to PeopleCert. Our training includes scenario practice, mock exams and open-book technique to help you prepare thoroughly the first time. Ask an advisor about resit support.

    Course Content

    What will I learn in the PRINCE2 Practitioner training?

    You will learn to apply and tailor the seven PRINCE2 principles, seven practices and seven processes to real scenarios, plus the People capability, sustainability and ESG, digital and data management, communication and open-book exam technique, all aligned to PRINCE2 7.

    Which edition of PRINCE2 does the course cover?

    The course covers the current PRINCE2 7th Edition (2023), aligned to the PeopleCert PRINCE2 7 Practitioner Syllabus and the PRINCE2 Managing Successful Projects manual. PRINCE2 7 introduced the People capability and renamed themes to practices.

    Are practice tests and mock exams included?

    Yes. The programme includes scenario-based practice questions, full-length mock exams and topic-wise exercises that mirror the open-book, 56-question Practitioner format, so you can identify weak areas and build exam readiness.

    Do I need prior experience to follow the course?

    You should hold PRINCE2 Foundation or an accepted equivalent, which gives you the grounding needed. Beyond that, the training builds from method knowledge to applied practice, so practising and aspiring project managers can follow it comfortably.

    How long is the PRINCE2 Practitioner training?

    The Practitioner programme runs for 16 hours of training, typically delivered as a two-day intensive or as extended half-day sessions. It covers all nine syllabus areas through scenario-based learning and open-book exam practice.
