The PRINCE2 approach

Working with the project team

Training needs for project teams

At the start of the project, team members may need training.
This could include training on any processes and standards to be used on the project (such as configuration management procedures, quality methods, progress reporting and other project-specific areas), or it could be an introduction to the project and its goals designed to motivate the team members.

Project Board members may also need training on their roles, including what is expected of them and the procedures needed to carry out their responsibilities.

Training on PRINCE2® processes and terminology may also be required for Team Managers and other members of the project management team.
During a project, team members may also need specialist training to enable them to complete their assigned tasks.
The Project Manager should ensure that training needs are built into the appropriate plans.

Further details of project management team roles and their associated responsibilities are provided in the folder ‘roles and responsibilities’ as part of the product package. These include role description outlines, which should be tailored to the needs of the specific project and each specific appointment.
