Blending the best of both worlds
Agile method has become increasingly popular in recent years, with organisations across all industries realising the benefits and successes it can bring.
Combining PRINCE2 with agile methods creates a more powerful approach, offering the flexibility of agile, but still retaining the authority, strength and governance of PRINCE2.
Based upon demand
PRINCE2 Agile was developed due to popular demand. It was felt there was a need for something which addressed common project governance issues which affected agile projects. PRINCE2 originated well before the days of agile during the time when waterfall projects were common. PRINCE2’s strengths have always laid in its strong control and project governance.
There are now 2 levels to PRINCE2 Agile certification.
- PRINCE2 Agile Foundation - 60-minute closed-book exam with 50 multiple-choice questions, pass mark of 55%. Suitable for those needing to understand PRINCE2 governance requirements; gain knowledge of agile concepts and techniques including Scrum, Kanban, Lean Start-up and Cynefin; and explore the interface between PRINCE2 and agile ways of working.
- PRINCE2 Agile Practitioner - 150-minute open-book exam with 50 multiple-choice questions, pass mark of 60%. Suitable for those wanting to apply the PRINCE2 Agile method in practice through real-world project management examples.
Note: the PRINCE2 Agile Foundation qualification was released by AXELOS in Q4 2018. So far, there is little demand to run courses, therefore most people who gain the PRINCE2 Agile Practitioner certification do so by passing the PRINCE2 Foundation or Practitioner exam first.
PRINCE2 Agile is a relatively new qualification. If you want to learn a bit more about blending PRINCE2 with agile or learn about how PRINCE2 and agile differ we’ve put together a few resources for you.
