Introduction to prince2
Thank you for downloading this book and for your interest in PRINCE2. The main objective of this book is to provide a logical and easy-to-understand introduction to PRINCE2®. The idea for this book came from the questions I received from people trying to learn PRINCE2 and after
reading the PRINCE2 manual.
The PRINCE2 manual for the Project Manager is an excellent reference manual, but can be rather difficult to pick up and read if you are both new to project management and to PRINCE2.
So this book is meant to be an easy introduction to PRINCE2, as it is quickly becoming the most read book on PRINCE2:2009.
The information in this book is also available in other formats, such as Computer-Based Training (CBT) and Podcast so you can watch or listen.
Test your knowledge: You can also download a Q&A podcast, which asks questions based on the information in this introduction book. It then gives a beep signal so you can pause and think about the question and when ready, then click Play to compare your answers. This is a great way to improve your knowledge, as further information can also be provided and this is also why we call this podcast “Learn Thru Questions.”
You can also get FREE access to our PRINCE2 full Self Study (Foundation or Practitioner) course when you book your PRINCE2 Foundation or Practitioner exam with us. See Link
