See PRINCE2™ PRACTITIONER EXAMINATION page for more detailed information on this exam. Delivery: This course is a paper based preparation course. It includes sample exam questions that can be submitted via email for feedback/marking as part of the preparation. Exam sessions are conducted by Rational Management in Melbourne and Sydney (see Public Course Schedule for dates available). Recommended for: This self-study course is for participants who wish to attempt the PRINCE2™ Practitioner Objective Testing Exam (OTE). Availability: This self-study course is only available to people who have passed the PRINCE2™ Foundation exam and are able to attend a Rational Management exam session. Purpose: The self-study course is intended to assist the participant to prepare themselves for the PRINCE2™ Practitioner exam, the higher level of the internationally recognised project management qualification. Composition: The course consists of three steps. On registering, the participant receives a Practitioner Exam Study Pack that includes detailed exam guidance material, a sample exam and a copy of the Rational Management POTENT (Practitioner Objective Testing Exam Navigation Tool). They will also receive a spreadsheet attached to their registration email that allows them to submit their trial answers for marking as part of the preparation process. It is essential that participants have access to the manual "Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2™" during both the preparation and the exam. 1. Learning - In the period prior to the exam participants should read the exam guidance material and complete the official sample exam questions (utilising the POTENT tool) and email these to Rational Management for marking. 2. Practising – Participants will receive their marks on the trial questions, which will indicate which questions were not answered correctly. Participants are encouraged to refer back to the study materials to research their errors and re-submit their answers as this process provides the greatest retention of information and a high success rate in undertaking the exam. When the candidate has successfully researched and answered all questions correctly they should be ready to sit the examination. 3. The Exam (fee included) - is of three hours duration and is an open-book examination (only the PRINCE2 Manual is allowed). The exam consists of nine questions and a short scenario plus some appendices that are relevant to specific questions. Each of the nine questions will be sub-divided into parts. Each of the nine questions is worth 40 marks giving a total possible of 360 marks. The pass mark is 180. No reading time is provided prior to the exam.
