How long does a PRINCE2 qualification last?

The PRINCE2 Practitioner certification is valid for a period of three years. To maintain your qualification and ensure that your Practitioner status is up-to-date, you will need to either retake the PRINCE2 Practitioner exam before the certification expires, or maintain your certification through continuing professional development (CPD) points.

CPD points can be earned by participating in activities that help you to stay current in your field and improve your skills as a project manager. These activities can include attending conferences and workshops, completing online courses, and participating in professional development programs.

By earning CPD points, you can maintain your PRINCE2 Practitioner certification and continue to demonstrate your expertise in project management.
