THE BIG PICTURE

About this course

Learn how to apply the European Commission's official Project Management Methodology. PM² was developed by the European Commission (EC) and is a simple approach to project management. It draws inspiration from established methodologies such as PMI, IPMA, PRINCE2®. Initially intended for use exclusively within the EU, it has gained widespread popularity and adoption. The PM² official guide is freely available on the European Commission website and is a lean introduction to this methodology. Obtaining the PM² Foundation Certification could significantly enhance your comprehension of Project Management, managing projects, routine project tasks and lead to career advancements. Considering that PM² is the official Project Management methodology of the EC and the preferred approach for managing EU funded projects, there is a great demand for PM² certified professionals. By obtaining this certification, you are not only proving your knowledge and understanding of the PM² Project Management methodology, but also the ability to deliver solutions and benefits to organizations by effectively managing the entire lifecycle of projects. Describe reporting, communication and stakeholder management. You can study by either joining an online (virtual) classroom or an in-person training option. Alternatively, you can book an exam directly and self-study. Pricing is available from our Accredited Training Organizations, or for an exam-only option, via our Public Exam Portal .
