Future PRINCE2 Examiner?

2006-08-25 (Friday) by Gregory Tucker.

I found out a couple days ago that I scored over 100 on my PRINCE2 Practitioner exam in March 2006. There are 150 points on the exam. More than 75 points are required to pass. 85 points are required to become a trainer or accredited consultant. Scoring over 100 is pretty rare. In fact, it may qualify me to become an examiner. I am told there is one other examiner in the U.S. I have pinged the person in charge of accreditation at APMG and am awaiting an answer.

PRINCE2 Practitioner

2006-08-11 (Friday) by Gregory Tucker.

One interesting and useful piece of news… in May I found out I passed the PRINCE2 Practitioner exam. PRINCE2 is a project management method from the U.K. that is rising in U.K., Europe, and possibly even Japan. The exam is a 3-hour essay format that is very difficult and almost impossible to bluff your way through it. I prepared by developing my company’s project management method around PRINCE2.

PRINCE2 has not yet become popular in the US. PMI’s PMBOK rules here. But PRINCE2’s cousin standard, ITIL, is growing rapidly here and is catalyzing growing interest in PRINCE2. I have heard this from a couple sources who teach PRINCE2 classes in the US.
