Prepare for PRINCE2 Foundation Version 7 through governance, products, tolerances, changes, and transition to operations.
Objectives and progression
Six original lessons, 25 questions, and three fictional banking cases on justification, people, practices, and processes. Includes an internal 21-decision assessment. Mapped to five learning outcomes in the PeopleCert syllabus inspected on a public CareerSmarter-hosted copy whose exact revision was unconfirmed. The current PeopleCert page confirms Version 7 and exam format. Introductory preparation applied to workplace decisions without exhaustive coverage or full Foundation exam reproduction.
Audience: Technical project managers, APS staff, and teams participating in service delivery and acceptance.
Prerequisites: General project and IT-service knowledge is useful. This path does not determine eligibility for external exams.
