Did Prince II Foundation 5 years ago. The exam is more about knowing the terminology and how the questions are phrased than anything else.

Can't say it's ever been a factor in getting work since.

They should both be put to the sword

By PMs who know what they're doing without referring to the user manual

Seriously how do you justify 200GBP on marking a paper?
