Description

Project Management Training (PRINCE2)

The Council has a learning requirement for identified managers to be upskilled in Project Management PRINCE2 methodology. The managers identified are responsible for the delivery of both small and large-scale projects throughout the organisation. Given the variety of projects and range of existing knowledge and skills, a flexible approach to the training offer will be required in order meet the precise knowledge level requirement for the job role being carried out i.e. project manager, project support etc.

As project officers within local government, it is imperative for these delegates not only to understand but to have the ability to apply the principles when managing projects and programmes.

The Council uses PRINCE2 methodology for consistent Project Management and therefore the learning is to be based on PRINCE2 methodology.

Essentially the Council would like to appoint an approved provider to deliver the PRINCE2 training programme at an introductory level, foundation, practitioner level and practical application level:

o One Day Introduction to Project Management Essentials
o PRINCE2 Foundation Qualification Course
o PRINCE2 Practitioner Qualification Course
o Practical Application Workshop for PRINCE2
o E-learning Access (as a standalone option for delegates not attending any of the courses above).
