Case Studies
PRINCE2 Training in the Public Sector
Many local authorities have adopted PRINCE2 as their local project management standard. AFA has extensive experience of helping county, district and metropolitan councils & NHS Trusts embed PRINCE2. Embedding PRINCE2 is a journey, and no two journeys are identical. So this case study draws together our experience with a number of different clients. Typically a local authority wishes to introduce a tailored version of PRINCE2 that links to existing council project management practices or wider financial authorisation rules.
AFA have conducted a number of consultancy assignments to design local versions of PRINCE2. AFA were the authors of 'Tailoring PRINCE2 - the original and most widely researched book of Cabinet Office endorsed guidance, on implementing PRINCE2 to suit local culture, and scaling PRINCE2 to suit individual projects. This gives AFA a unique breadth and depth of knowledge in this arena.
We have created several different tailored versions of PRINCE2. For one client we simply created in-house versions of our standard PRINCE2 training course - a very cost effective solution. For other clients who needed more sophisticated implementations we have included:
- Tailored and branded training material
- Complementary Project Management Handbooks
- Intranets
- Templates
- Mentoring
- Workshops
Local cultures are always unique. So AFA have developed a courseware management environment. This allows us to develop tailored and branded training at the lowest possible cost.
