Course Approach
This is the 3 day Foundation course and is a mixture of input and practical sessions teaching to the APM Group ‘Foundation-level’ syllabus, delivered by an APMG approved trainer with practical experience of project and programme management. The course incorporates the APM Group MSP® Foundation exam, but includes additional focus on the application of the method using application-level tasks in order to add value and help delegates better understand how to apply MSP to a programme, as well as be better prepared if they ever choose to go on to take the Practitioner-level exam in the future.
The Foundation exam is taken near the end of the last day, after all of the MSP® elements have been sufficiently covered.
The pre-course material includes SPOCE’s highly acclaimed event preparation materials and the MSP® Manual. Delegates should spend approximately 10 hours studying this pre-course material in order to be well prepared for the course.
Approach & Exams
MSP® Foundation Exam: 1 hour, closed book, 75 multiple-choice questions.
