You could always try spending ten years as Chancellor, not sure how successful this "training" has been, though.Originally posted by DieScumThink I might be able to swing some PM training.

The Practitioner is apparently quite tough...but the Foundation is sooooo easy.Comment

The Practitioner is tough enough but if you've worked inside a project before you should get through. The thing to rmember is that this won't make you a project manager, but if you have project management experience it is useful and does give you an edge if you're going for PM jobs.Comment

I have gotten interviews/work partly because I have 'Registered PRINCE2 Practitioner' on my CV. Start the contract and the client doesn't use PRINCE2 - they just want to hire someone who knows about managing projects and they think PRINCE2 means that. It doesn't.Rule #76: No excuses. Play like a champion.Comment
