MSP® 5th edition Training and Certification

Managing Successful Programmes (MSP®) 5th edition is a full rework of 4th edition and accounts for a number of key changes such as; the digital age, volatility of the business environment, misconceptions about what MSP® actually does (i.e. it is not just a very big project). Also importantly the increasing use of agile delivery methods and their role in outcomes of benefits is covered. SPOCE now offer this approach in every learning option; eLearning, (virtual) classroom, On Demand 24 hour access and in-house client training. It recommended that delegates with an MSP® 4th edition qualification update theirs to the new 5th edition when they can. The changes that 5th edition introduces are as follows:

• -The seven principles have been rewritten
• - There are now seven themes where there were nine and are all described in one word.
• - There are now seven processes in the lifecycle (what was previously called 'transformational flow).'
• - Changes to the structure of the vision statement have been introduced.
• - Risks and their mitigation are given more of a spotlight.
• - The importance of the business case and its role in funding is given more focus.
• - Organisation structure and roles have been reviewed and updated.
