PRINCE2 Foundation training with Victor

I recently completed my PRINCE2 Foundation training with Victor Fashoro of Advantage Learning. Victor encouraged all of us in the course to 'keep things simple' and he made the materials easy to comprehend. I was impressed with Victor's vast knowledge and his ability to help me understand a lot of concepts in a short period of time. I would highly recommend Victor and Advantage Learning!

Prince 2 review

Viktor was an excellent trainer. He kept things interesting and focused on reasoning rather than just plain repetative learning.

Prince2 Training - Advantage Learning

The in-class training we received was exceptional - it brought the Prince2 concepts to life in an easy to understand, meaningful way! The facilitator (Victor) really knows his stuff.

Great course and great support

I registered for the course with Advantage learning and I had a great support from Jo and the team to get my certification done. I passed from the first trial.
The material was great, explained in a simple way and the sample tests helped set my mind to the way the exam is set up.
Thank you Advantage Learning for supporting me throughout this.

MSP Course Review

The MSP course taught by Reg Edwards was well organized, thorough and expertly delivered. I clearly understood the principles and themes of managing a programme by the end of the week. All in all, a very good course.

Prince2 minefield

Steven, the trainer that Advantage Learning allocated to our training group, did a marvellous job of steering us through what was a very tough Prince2 Practitioner training course. He was Friendly, knowledgeable, approachable and was able to drill down to the root of any problems that we had in understanding the Prince2 Approach. I doubt I would have passed without his help.

The hotel that Advantage booked for our training was excellent, we were very well looked after, which meant we had one less worry while we were training.

I truly believe that to give yourself the best chance of passing an exam like the Prince2 Practitioner, using the help and expertise of Advantage Learning will stand you in very good stead.

Thanks John. Steven is "the Stig of PRINCE2" - his knowledge of the material is beyond the expert level and he always gives 100% to make it understandable to his students.

Quality Training & Venue

Whilst this is an intense 1 week course with reading at night, Steven made the journey enlightening and enjoyable, supplemented by the choice of location and quality of the venue.
There is a good balance between theory, practice and links to daily practice to allow people from all backgrounds to excel.
Highly recommended.

Highly Recommended Training experience

I investigated a number of Prince2 course providers in Scotland, and A.Learning came across initially from speaking to them over the phone as my preferred choice. This choice was then validated with the quality of pre-course support, prompt responses to communications and the actual course itself. The trainer the most important part - was excellent and his knowledge of both the subject matter and experience of passing the actual exams, couldn't be surpassed. Apart from one small issue - the Edinburgh venue is also ideal - and the food provided (both quality and quantity) is fantastic- and you'll need the calories to fuel your brain throughout the week. From my understanding, their class sizes aren't large - ours was 5 people which is also something to seriously consider. A large class size would not be beneficial to the learning process. The course itself does require a significant time commitment (before and during) and A.Learning do stress this. If other providers don't, I would be very wary.

Hi Gavin, really useful feedback, thanks. We limit the class sizes to 12 so everyone gets a quality course but, if needs be, we'll run the course in Scotland for just 1 person. Since 2003 Advantage Learning has never cancelled a PRINCE2 class so you know what you're getting and that it will run as promised, every time

Better Business Case Practitioner Course

I have developed Business cases over many years but I still found this course really helpful. Colin, the trainer was first class and extremely knowledgeable about the subject. He really made sure that the class understood the notes and that supporting material was clear, making time available for individual delegates to ask him questions in confidence if it helped them and then patiently explaining points to clarify and consolidate the learning points. I certainly felt comfortable in asking him when I needed to. This is an admittedly "dry" subject but Colin encouraged discussions which enabled group participation and interest in the subject.

Better Business Case Practitioner Course

I have been involved with Business cases over many years but this course really helped me to develop a clearer understanding on specific aspects. The trainer was first class and extremely knowledgable about the subject. He went the extra mile to ensure the notes and supporting material was clear, fully explaining some of the more complex angles. I felt at ease asking for clarification of specific issues to which I was always given a comprehnsive response.

Kevin, Thanks for your feedback which we'll pass on to Colin. There's always something new to learn!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Would recommend the course to anybody involved in Public Sector Business Cases.

I have knowledge of Business Case writing, I’m experienced but not as experienced as the rest of the team. I’m also familiar with the five case model.
I found the course beneficial as it gave me a logical approach to producing a business case step by step whereas in the past I’ve largely been building on existing business cases. I found the style of learning enjoyable enough with plenty of opportunities for reflection & examples of how we practically apply this in our workplace.
I understand that the course content is an interpretation of the Treasury Green Book & therefore found a limited amount of variation & thus unlearning but nothing unreasonable.
I found the learning fairly intense & did read the tuition several times before & during the course to gain familiarity but no more preparation than I’d make for any other examination.

I found the section on financial modelling very interesting, especially the framework for calculation of optimism bias as well as mitigation & financial quantification of risk.

Therefore it wasn’t just the writing side I fell I benefitted from but also the consolidation of my technical skills.


One of the most pleasing things is that I have been able to consolidate on my learning on my return to the Office & therefore found the course very relevant to my day to day role.

Excellent Delivery of PRINCE2 Practitioner Course

I recently sat my practitioner exam and found the course to be well delivered by a knowledgeable trainer. I felt fully prepared to sit the exam after the one day exam preparation. I would recommend this course to others.

highest quality training and support

PRINCE2 is pretty daunting, but Advantage got me through it with flying colours. From the support staff before the course. to the trainer through the course, they were extremely professional - in particular, the trainer's knowledge and enthusiasm were tremendously helpful. Catering was pretty good too!
