What is PRINCE2 Agile Foundation?
Structured delivery meets agile flexibility.
PRINCE2 Agile® has just undergone its most significant transformation since its launch in 2015. Grounded in the proven framework of PRINCE2, V2 is a modernised release designed for the dynamic, fast-paced world of agile project delivery.
At Althris, we now offer updated training and certification pathways to support individuals and organisations looking to embrace structured agility with confidence.
Why PRINCE2 Agile has been updated
Agile is no longer confined to software teams – it’s a strategic capability adopted across industries. As organisations scale agile practices beyond individual teams, the frameworks supporting them must evolve too.
PRINCE2 Agile V2 responds to:
- The growing need for organisation-wide agility
- A greater focus on agile leadership and culture
- Demand for scalable governance across multiple teams and products
- The shift from traditional measures of success to value-focused delivery
What’s New in PRINCE2 Agile V2?
PRINCE2 Agile v2 has been reimagined to support modern agile delivery with a sharper, more practical focus:
Agile Mindset & Culture
It’s not just about applying agile tools – it’s about being agile. V2 emphasises psychological safety, sustainable delivery, and a leadership style that empowers teams.
Agile Leadership
Leaders are now recognised as enablers of agile success, not just managers of process. The updated framework introduces clear guidance on fostering the conditions for agility to thrive.
Scaling and Governance
New material supports agile delivery across multi-team, multi-product, and cross-functional environments – with guidance on how to scale responsibly.
Value-Centric Performance
Updated performance measures go beyond time, cost, and scope – focusing on customer value, responsiveness, and team adaptability.
PRINCE2 v7 Alignment
While PRINCE2 Agile remains a standalone framework, it now aligns with PRINCE2 v7 terminology, performance metrics, and governance principles.
What’s Improved?
- Tailoring for context – Practical guidance on adapting PRINCE2 Agile for your projects and teams
- Clearer language – Refined and accessible terminology for agile and traditional audiences
- Hands-on learning – Real-life examples, workshops, and case studies built into training
- Updated practices – Integrated support for Scrum, Kanban, SAFe®, and other popular methods
What Hasn’t Changed?
- The powerful blend of governance and agility
- The Foundation and Practitioner certification structure
- Suitability for hybrid, regulated, or governed project environments
- Recognition as the go-to certification for agile professionals in complex settings
