    Prince2 Practioner

    Sitting for it this friday....Have gone through the manual a couple of times.

    Can anyone provide me with online resources such as flash cards etc which might help...any other suggestions/inputs welcome....

    I'd draw a mind map (make it colourful) but you won't be allowed to take it in with you. Use colour and images to annotate the manual.

    Good luck.

      I've had my Prince 2 Practitioner for years, but it has been significantly less useful in winning work than my ability to bulltulip.

      Get googling. There will tons of stuff out there. However, the last time I saw a "flash card" it had the letters C A T on it.



      Good luck for Friday.

          I only went as far as the foundation level because I'm not a PM. However what I found was that while it doesn't get you a job, not having a Prince2 qulaification does stop you getting one - esp govt work as the pimps won't consider you
          Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

          I preferred version 1!

              This may be helpful. However be aware that ILX may have introduced slight variation in the terminology, why there might be small naming discrepancies between the OGC and ILX models.

                    Got the results last night through email and wooho...Passed the practioner.

                    I am throughly chuffed with myself about utilising the october bench period to pass Prince2 Practioner through self study...


                    Now to tackle the real crunch of breaking into Project management,moving away from Technical Consultancy roles....
