Why did the APMG change the Prince2 exam format?
Reasons include: • Reducing delays in delivering results to delegates, due to the popularity of PRINCE2 there are just too many candidates for the number of markers! • Reducing costs associated with the labour intensive activity as marking essay exams • Language-friendly assessment method, to become established within a new language there is a need for a number of expert markers with that language, this causes delays in conquering new markets • Consistency of assessment, as the essay style exams are inherently subjective there was room for Prince2 exam results to vary depending on the marker, with objective examinations the marking is objective (the same for everyone).
