Can I just sit a PRINCE2 exam?

Yes, you can just sit a PRINCE2 exam without attending a PRINCE2 course. The exam can be taken either as part of a PRINCE2-accredited training course through a PRINCE2 training provider, or online through self-study. However, it is recommended that you do take a PRINCE2 course in order to adequately prepare for the exam.

A PRINCE2 course will provide you with the knowledge and skills necessary to understand the PRINCE2 methodology and apply it in a real-world project environment. This will increase your chances of passing the exam on the first try.
