Are you starting up a Project Management Training Company

Hi,
I'm Derek and whilst not looking to start-up a business I am interested in hearing from anyone who is looking to, or has recently set-up a training company specialising in Project Managment and specifically the Prince 2 Project Managment method. I am an accreditied Prince 2 Instructor/consultant.
I have a vast experience in training and project management and have owned my own small but succesful training company and so am familiar with starting up a new venture from marketing, sales and consultancy.
Should anyone be interested please feel free to reply here. Good luck with your ventures,
Derek

Hi Derek
We offer MS Project Training Courses via my company Computer Training Solutions but not Prince 2 Training. I might be interested in setting up Prince2 courses though- give me a shout. We have 4 training centres in Bristol, London, Solihull and Reading.

Hi Claire,
Would love to chat about it. There is some investment required should you wish to become an Authorised Training and Education Centre (ATO) for Prince 2. The accreditation is with the APM Group and should you wish to know more then visit their website. You could also offer Project Management Essentials courses which is easier to develop. As a general tip all white collar type accreditations such as Prince 2 and ITIL are lucrative but time-consuming and fairly costly to become accredited.
Am happy to offer you advice and assistance and should you wish to progress further we can discuss how I may be able to help. I see one of two options 1) as a freelancer, helping you to become accredited including the writing of courseware, 2) becoming a full-time resource assisting you to market the courses and responsible for getting your organisation accredited.
I currently work full-time as a P2 Instructor/Consultant but am happy to assist in anyway I can. My number is 07867 503933 and am available any time over the next two days should you want to discuss further.
