A personal computer is recommended to avoid any technical issues. If you are using an office computer, make sure you have the access rights or IT support at the time of the exam.

Exams can be taken on a recent MAC or PC with Windows. A webcam and working microphone (internal or external) are required.

The online exam is not available on a tablet (Ipad) or Cellular phone at the moment.

You must have a photographic ID with you. A driver’s license or passport is fine. A work ID, with photograph, is also acceptable.

Candidates who do not renew will still be included on the Successful Candidates Register (SCR) and the Candidate Verification Service, but a note will be added to their record to indicate that their certification needs to be renewed to align with current certification requirements.

What happens if I don’t pass the exam?

If you don’t pass the exam you can do a re-sit. We will send you a new voucher code for an additional fee.

This will provide you a second attempt if necessary within the following 6 months.

FAQs:

How many hours of study are required to pass the exam?
You need at least 20 hours study to get ready for the Foundation exam.
Can you compare PRINCE2 e-learning vs virtual?
Good question. PRINCE2 e-learning is flexible – you can fit the learning around your schedule. You don’t have to take time off to attend a course and you can work anywhere – at home, on the road, in hotels etc. Like our virtual training the material is fully accredited and will prepare you for the examination. But sometimes, self-study learning can be too flexible, so you need to be disciplined and set yourself a clear schedule. PRINCE2 instructor-led training is the quickest route to PRINCE2 certification – it is all done in 3 days. During a virtual classroom event, you get access to a PRINCE2 accredited trainer. Many students said that the trainer’s insights and enthusiasm increased their understanding of the methodology. The opportunity to ask specific questions and get immediate answers is one of the biggest benefits of instructor-led training. There are also networking opportunities so you can share and learn from other’s experiences.
I am thinking about buying the PRINCE2 manual and self-studying?
Our e-learning package includes everything and is built to save you money and trouble. Our fully accredited e-learning package includes online lessons, the latest practice exam questions, shipping, examination costs and proctor fees. There is nothing else to pay and you have a higher chance of passing your PRINCE2 exam.
What are the technical support hours for e-learning course?
For any questions regarding the material or help on the e-learning course, we can be reached between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. (Eastern Time Zone). For technical issues, the IT team is located in the UK, so tech support is only available between 8 a.m. and Noon (Eastern Time Zone).
Can exams be taken on paper?
No. As of February 1st, 2022, the exam authority PeopleCert has eliminated paper exams in favor of online.
I am not sure my computer is up to date for the online exam?
You can use the contact form to send us a message in advance. We will be able to verify if your computer meets the technical requirements.
