Portfolio, Programme and Project Offices (P3O) is the latest best practice guidance from the UK's Office of Government Commerce.
The new P3O guidance - aligned to OGC's PRINCE2®, MSP™, and M_o_R® - brings together in one place a set of principles, processes and techniques to facilitate effective portfolio, programme and project management through enablement, challenge and support structures.
P3O Qualifications
Foundation Qualification
The Foundation qualification focuses on the concepts, structures and duties of a P3O.
The exam consists of 50 multiple choice questions to be answered in 40 minutes. It is a closed-book examination and has a pass mark of 60%.
Practitioner Qualification
The APM Group intends to launch a Practitioner-level qualification to support P3O. The decision to develop this will be based on feedback from the market following publication of the P3O guidance and the release of the Foundation qualification.
