PRINCE2 builds structured governance skills

Defence Investment Surge

Ottawa plans to expand defence exports and create tens of thousands of jobs, and these large, high-scrutiny programmes demand disciplined project control that certified professionals deliver.

PRINCE2 builds stage and risk control skills

Public Sector Method Preference

PRINCE2 is the structured method public sector and Commonwealth procurement widely recognise, so credentialed practitioners are frequently preferred on government-contracted project work.

PRINCE2 is the method procurement recognises

Kanata North Delivery Scale

With 540+ firms and 33,000+ staff running concurrent projects, Kanata North technology employers need a consistent, tailorable method to deliver reliably across teams.

Digital transformation across the capital is slowed by project skills gaps, so professionals who can plan, govern and close projects to a recognised standard are in strong demand.

PRINCE2 makes certified talent stand out

Secure and Cyber Delivery

Secure cloud and national security programmes demand governed, well-documented project control, and PRINCE2 gives teams the management products and oversight these projects require.

Frequently Asked QuestionsHere's everything you may ask...

PRINCE2 Foundation & Practitioner is a combined certification in PRINCE2 7, the structured project management method owned and awarded by PeopleCert (AXELOS). It suits project coordinators, managers, delivery leads and PMO team members who want a recognised, tailorable way to run projects.

General

What is the PRINCE2 Foundation & Practitioner certification and who is it for?

Why choose Invensis Learning for PRINCE2 training in Ottawa?

Invensis Learning is a PeopleCert Accredited Training Organisation delivering official PRINCE2 7 courseware, accredited trainers, flexible formats and dual exam preparation. You get a clear, supported path from study to certified across both the Foundation and Practitioner levels.

Is PRINCE2 recognised in Ottawa and across Canada?

Yes. PRINCE2 is a globally recognised method valued across Canada and the Commonwealth, with over one million certificates issued worldwide. In Ottawa it is actively recognised by federal departments, defence programmes, consulting firms and Kanata North technology employers.

What career benefits does PRINCE2 certification offer?

PRINCE2 certification positions you for roles from project coordinator to project manager, programme manager and PMO director. Project managers in Ottawa average around C$88,860 a year, and project management certifications typically add a 10 to 15 per cent pay premium. Talk to a learning advisor to plan your path.

How long is the PRINCE2 certification valid?

Both PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner are valid for three years. Foundation is renewed by earning 60 CPD points per cycle, and Practitioner can be renewed by re-taking the exam, completing CPD via a MyAxelos subscription, or passing a higher PRINCE2 qualification.

Pricing

How much does PRINCE2 training cost in Ottawa?

Course fees depend on the format you choose (live online, classroom or corporate group) and are quoted in Canadian dollars. Pricing is available on request, and every package is built around the full value of dual exam preparation. Request a quote for current Ottawa batches.

What is included in the PRINCE2 course fee?

The training fee typically includes official PeopleCert-aligned courseware, coverage of both Foundation and Practitioner, practice questions, mock exams, learner support and a course completion record. Exact inclusions vary by package, so confirm when you enquire.

Is the exam fee included in the training price?

Exam vouchers are usually offered as part of a combined training and dual exam package through the accredited provider. PeopleCert exam pricing varies by region and channel, so confirm whether your chosen package bundles both exams when you request a quote.

Do you offer group or corporate discounts for PRINCE2 training?

Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for PMOs, delivery teams and whole departments. Ask about corporate or group pricing for a tailored quote for your Ottawa team.

What payment methods and instalment options are available?

We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, and offer instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

Exam

What is the format of the PRINCE2 Foundation exam?

The PRINCE2 7 Foundation exam is closed book with 60 multiple-choice questions to be answered in 60 minutes. The pass mark is 60 per cent, meaning 36 out of 60 correct. It tests your knowledge and comprehension of the PRINCE2 method.

What is the format of the PRINCE2 Practitioner exam?

The PRINCE2 7 Practitioner exam is open book, with the PRINCE2 manual permitted. It has 56 questions and sub-questions worth 70 marks, lasts 150 minutes, and requires 60 per cent (42 of 70 marks) to pass. It tests how you apply and tailor PRINCE2 to project scenarios.

Do I need to pass Foundation before Practitioner?

Yes. PRINCE2 Foundation is a prerequisite for the Practitioner exam. Accepted equivalents such as PMP, CAPM or IPMA levels may also qualify you; the combined programme is designed to be taken sequentially, Foundation first, then Practitioner.

Where can I take the PRINCE2 exams?

You can sit both exams online through PeopleCert's OnVUE proctoring, available 24/7, or at a PeopleCert authorised test centre. Exams are typically arranged through the accredited provider as part of your training and dual exam package.

What happens if I do not pass an exam the first time?

You can re-sit a PRINCE2 exam if needed. Our training includes practice questions and full mock exams for both levels to build your readiness before exam day, and selected packages include retake support. Confirm the re-sit policy when you enrol.

Course Content

What topics are covered in the PRINCE2 training?

The training covers the full PRINCE2 7 method: the seven principles, the People capability, the seven practices (Business Case, Organizing, Plans, Quality, Risk, Issues, Progress) and the seven processes, plus tailoring and exam preparation for both levels.

What is new in PRINCE2 7 compared with PRINCE2 6?

PRINCE2 7 (2023) introduces the People capability as a core element, renames Themes to Practices, and integrates commercial management, sustainability and agile considerations. The courseware is aligned to this current 7th edition throughout.

Do I need prior experience to take this course?

No prior experience is required for PRINCE2 Foundation, which is open to all. The programme is beginner friendly and builds step by step, so newcomers and practising project staff alike can progress to Practitioner-level application with trainer support.

What learning resources and materials are provided?

You receive official PeopleCert-aligned courseware, practice questions, full-length mock exams for both levels, and revision aids. Materials map to the PRINCE2 7 Foundation and Practitioner syllabus to keep your preparation on track.

Which edition is the courseware aligned to?

All courseware is aligned to PRINCE2 7, the current 7th edition (2023) published by PeopleCert and based on the PRINCE2 7 Managing Successful Projects manual. You will never study an outdated edition.

Enrollment

What are the eligibility requirements to enrol in PRINCE2 training?

Anyone can enrol in the training, and PRINCE2 Foundation has no formal prerequisites. To sit the Practitioner exam you need PRINCE2 Foundation or an accepted equivalent such as PMP, CAPM or an IPMA level.

How do I enrol in the PRINCE2 course?

You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and you will receive access to schedules, courseware and learning resources. Talk to a learning advisor if you need help choosing a batch.

What training formats are available?

We offer online (live virtual) instructor-led training, classroom training and customised corporate group training, so you can choose the format that fits your schedule. Online delivery lets Ottawa professionals train without travel.

How soon can I start the PRINCE2 course?

New batches run regularly across live online and classroom formats, so you can usually start within days. See upcoming schedules or speak with a learning advisor to reserve a place that suits you.
