Instructor-ledCopied! Key takeaways MoSCoW helps teams make clear trade-offs so the most valuable work is delivered first. MoSCoW categorises requirements into Must, Should, Could, and Won’t to create shared priorities.
Focusing on Must items reduces risk by protecting the minimum needed for success.Self-pacedShould and Could items provide flexibility when time, budget, or resources tighten. Won’t items prevent scope creep by explicitly deferring low value work. Running a workshop with post-it notes and tracking outcomes on a Kanban board keeps alignment high.

Which project management qualification should I choose?
Simon Buehring 19 Feb 2026Start with your goal: do you want a structured project method, broad project management knowledge, or an agile project delivery approach. PRINCE2 is a defined project management method with governance and controls, APM builds broad project management knowledge, and AgilePM/PRINCE2 Agile focus on agile delivery in project environments. If you’re unsure, use the comparison summaries on this page and then view the qualification page for full details and options.
What’s the difference between PRINCE2 and APM?Find out why Knowledge Train is rated as a market leader for AgilePM. Read on for independent insights.
PRINCE2 is a project management method with defined roles, stages and controls you can apply to run projects consistently. APM courses focus on broader project management knowledge and good practice across tools, techniques and professional terminology. If you want a step-by-step method for delivery, PRINCE2 is often a good fit; if you want a wider understanding that applies across many approaches, APM may suit you better.
Should I choose AgilePM or PRINCE2 Agile?
Choose AgilePM if you want a structured approach to managing agile projects end-to-end, with practical techniques for planning and managing delivery in an agile way. Choose PRINCE2 Agile if you want PRINCE2-style governance and controls to work effectively alongside agile delivery practices in teams. If your organisation already uses PRINCE2 controls, PRINCE2 Agile is often the most natural fit.
There are plenty of free project management introductions online, including short videos, articles and taster lessons. These can be useful for getting a feel for the basics, but they usually don’t include an accredited qualification or an official exam. If your goal is a recognised credential (such as PRINCE2, APM or similar), you should expect to pay for training and assessment. If you’d like a low-commitment way to explore the topic first, you can start with 1 month’s free access to our learning library and work through bite-sized project management lessons at your own pace.
Do I need any prerequisites to take these qualifications?
Many Foundation-level courses are suitable for beginners and do not require prior project management experience. Higher-level courses (such as Practitioner levels) may require you to have passed the relevant Foundation exam or hold an accepted prerequisite. Always check the specific qualification page for the exact entry requirements.
Yes, many learners study alongside work by choosing a format and pace that fits their schedule. Some courses have self-paced options, and instructor-led courses run on scheduled dates, so you can plan ahead. The available study options vary by qualification, so check the relevant qualification page to see what’s available for your chosen route.Simon Buehring
