As I outlined previously, I have two basic information about Prince2 Foundation Exams and how they are done by others. The first is information I am privy to as a qualified consultant. The second is what I have researched online. We will go over them below.
First, it appears that there are a LOT of general forums for this type of thing. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? There are many places to get help for courses. Some may not be helpful for you at all.
It is definitely a good thing. People can share tips and ideas. There are also a lot of subjects covered in general forums. When people are sharing their knowledge there, they are more likely to be honest and provide honest answers to your questions.
Second, I can tell you what NOT to do if you hire someone to do your Prince2 Foundation Exam. Some of the things I have found in forums include; asking for help when it is not needed; begging for information; and most importantly, NOT doing your own research! Here is a brief run down of some of the things you should avoid if you decide to hire someone to do your exam:
You should NOT seek specific advice from someone who you have never worked with before. If you are in doubt, do your own research first. Do not take the word of someone who wants to give you advice because he/she probably knows what they are talking about.
It’s impossible to ask anyone for help. You should always realize that when you are trying to save money, the ONLY way to get an honest opinion is to not pay for it. The best way to find someone who is qualified to help you is to not waste your time.
Of course, some people need to be told when they are wrong. If you are ever told you are wrong or that you were incorrect, you should be aware that it is incorrect and should not be repeated. By paying someone to help you, you are responsible for any mistakes.
Do you think it is wrong to feel guilty when you pay someone to help you? If you are paying someone to help you, you are the one doing the work. So, you are the one who should feel guilty.
If you feel guilty, find someone else to pay to. The problem here is not guilt. It is simply an unfortunate fact that you cannot control when you pay someone to help you.
Is your goal to start a new business? Do you need to know how much it will cost you? Are you not ready to make that decision?
Do you have a deadline to meet or do you need to have something finished? Are you a beginner or do you have some experience? Once you know the answers to these questions, then you can determine what kind of help you need. You can learn more about the resources available to you in my resource box below.
