The course will build on your understanding of MSP and help you to apply and interpret MSP Principles against a realistic programme scenario. The course is ‘beyond application’ into areas of interpretation and judgement that programme directors and managers have to use all the time.
The course follows the standard syllabus issued by the MSP Examinations Board for the Advanced Practitioner qualification. There will be particular emphasis on the interconnections of the Governance Themes and Transformational Flow, and how the Principles of MSP can be expressed in different situations.
You will work through a set Case Study during the course as well as with sample examination papers. You will be given examination tips and full preparation for the MSP Advanced Practitioner examination on the afternoon of the second day.
