Course Overview

MSP® is the industry standard in project management and business strategy execution. The Foundation virtual classroom training will begin by teaching programme management fundamentals. On completion of the Foundation training, the next level is Practitioner, which will guide you through implementing the theory you've been taught.

MSP is complimentary to other project management qualifications, including PRINCE2® and MoP®, and can work alongside them.
