Comparing PRINCE2 and PMBOKAdvantage Learning Logo

 

The most common standards in project management are the Project Management Institute's Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) and the British Government's Projects in Controlled Environments (PRINCE2).

PRINCE2 is a series of Processes, Components and Techniques suitable for any size or subject of project.  It describes what a project manager should do.

The PMBOK is a collection of knowledge areas and process groups.  It describes what a Project Manager should know.

Both systems are global and have hundreds of thousands of certified members.  It is generally accepted that PRINCE2 and PMBOK are complementary and that a complete Project Manager should have knowledge of both.

Advantage Learning is a PMI Registered Education Provider and an Accredited Training Organization for PRINCE2 - so you will gain PDUs by attending our PRINCE2 Training courses.

For a detailed comparison we have 2 White Papers and a Case Study available for you to download.
