Your PRINCE2® certification is valid for 3 years from the date you pass your exam.
To maintain your certified status and keep your skills up to date, you’ll need to renew your qualification before it expires. You can do this in one of the following ways:
- Retake the exam: Simply retake the same PRINCE2® exam before your certification expiry date.
- Progress within the PRINCE2® suite: Take a further course and pass another exam in the same certification family (e.g., moving from Foundation to Practitioner).
- Log CPD points: Maintain your certification by actively collecting and recording Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points through your PeopleCert Plus membership (which is included in the cost of your course with us!).
Renewing your certification helps you stay current, competitive, and confident in your project management career.
