Can I study PRINCE2 on my own?

Can I study PRINCE2 on my own?

Yes, you can study PRINCE2 on your own. You can buy the PRINCE2 manual, download the syllabus and sample exams from the AXELOS web site and prepare that way. However, most people find it is quicker and easier to buy a self-paced PRINCE2 e-learning course which comes with the PRINCE2 exams. Usually these courses are valid for up to 12 months so you have plenty of time to study for your PRINCE2 certification.
