MSP® (Managing Successful Programmes) is the non-proprietary best practice model from the same stable as PRINCE2®, although it is a natural companion to any Project Management methodology.
It ensures programme delivery is on time, on budget, of high quality, and delivers the benefits demanded by the business investment.

Course Structure

The MSP® Foundation Course provides participants with an extended theoretical and practical knowledge of MSP® and prepares participants to take the MSP® Foundation Exam on Day 3.

The course can be undertaken on its own, or combined with the MSP® Practitioner Course, with an additional two days and the Practitioner exam on day 5.
