PRINCE2 Foundation

Organisations today are experiencing unprecedented levels of change, and for organisations to survive and prosper they need to be able to manage and implement changes in an effective and efficient way. Projects bring together resources, skills, technology and ideas to enable organisations to change and introduce outcomes that deliver real benefits or to achieve business objectives. Good project management helps to ensure that these benefits or objectives are achieved within budget, within time and to the required quality. Project management is therefore a key skill required by the modern manager!
