About this course

Managing Successful Programmes™ is unique in its status as a generic best practice framework; generic yet flexible in application. The Registered MSP Practitioner qualification is now established as the premier programme management qualification in many parts of the world. This course is based upon the third edition of Managing Successful Programmes that pearcemayfield helped to author.

This course is designed for managers who have gained the Practitioner qualification and who wish to go on and gain the prestigious Advanced Practitioner qualification.

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.

DESIGNED FOR

This course is designed for practising programme managers, programme directors, programme office staff, change managers and auditors, who wish to gain further recognition of their skills after taking the MSP Foundation and Practitioner examinations.
