This document provides an overview of PRINCE2 (Projects IN Controlled Environments), a project management methodology used in the UK and Europe. It compares PRINCE2 to PMBOK (Project Management Body of Knowledge), the recognized standard for project management knowledge. While PMBOK provides knowledge, PRINCE2 is an actual methodology that can help structure a project. The document discusses how PRINCE2 and PMBOK complement each other, with PRINCE2 providing the methodology to implement project management knowledge gained from PMBOK.
