Selected quotes

Hans Heldbo, Peak

It is fun to be a consultant, but it is also demanding as you are the product being sold to the client. You have to be sharp all the time - and here it is a great advantage that you are being taken care of in Peak.

It is a priority that your private life and your professional ambitions are connected, and if you need help, you'll never go in vain. Peak is a very human workplace. A proper place - no less. You are never alone.

Dorthe Jensen, Peak

At Peak you have competent, experienced colleagues that know how to lead projects and programmes. You have access to a great amount of knowledge on best practices in project, programme, portfolio and change management and you work in different organisations and contribute to important tasks.

Michael Meisner, Peak

In Peak there is room for you to express your opinion. The flat organizational structure ensures that the management listens and are open to feedback. I think that's rather atypical for a management house of this size.

MSP® Foundation in English

Courses Programme Management MSP® Foundation in English

The requirements for programme management have never been greater. And when taking the global digitalisation, high-speed changes, and the increased focus on agility into account, it is only natural that a best practice like Managing Successful Programmes is updated.

With MSP, you are equipped to lead programs in a modern and ever-changing world. Peak Consulting Group is among the first to introduce the updated MSP version 5 to the Danish market. This means that you will now get the latest version on our intensive course, which gives you a comprehensive knowledge about MSP, enables you to pass the MSP Foundation exam and not least equips you with tools to implement a proven and effective best practice in your organisation.

What does the update include?
Unlike the previous version from 2011, the format has been rewritten and modernized to be even more framing and can also handle an iterative and cyclical progress towards the future state you wish to create. However, the basic structure remains the same, and the focus remains on supporting value creation and profit realization, which typically does not happen in linear processes in complex organizations.The focal point is still principles, themes, and processes. However, the changes from versions 4 to 5 are so significant that an MSP version 5 Foundation must have been passed to continue to MSP Practitioner. This means that if you have a certification in MSP Foundation version 4 and would like to be certified as a Practitioner, this requires a brand-new MSP Foundation certification.

• You get theoretical insight into and understanding of MSPs
• You gain an in-depth knowledge of a proven best practice
• You get the tools to implement MSP in your organisation – scaled and adapted to your specific needs.
• You will be equipped to pass the MSP Foundation exam

The MSP Foundation course will give you a thorough knowledge of the MSP framework, which you can use actively in your work as a programme manager or programme employee. You will also gain an understanding of the principles and the flow of a program as well as the opportunity, with the use of exercises, to test your skills. Upon successful completion of the exam, you will receive an MSP Foundation certification.

This course is relevant if you want a comprehensive knowledge of MSP, and you, either individually or as an organisation, seek a controlled approach to programme management and dealing with programmes. You are involved in programmes as e.g., a programme manager, responsible for all or parts of the program’s management disciplines, a programme employee or an experienced project manager.

The course focuses on understanding process-oriented programme management according to MSP, and therefore it will be an advantage if you have practical work experience within programme or project management.

Approximately three weeks before the start of the course, you will receive the MSP e-book and a pre-course workbook. The pre-course workbook consists of tasks you need to do before starting the course and recommendations of relevant reading in the e-book. We recommend that you have read the manual and pre-course workbook, which is expected to take about 20 hours

The course is an intensive 3-day daytime course without overnight accommodation. As a participant, you are encouraged to actively contribute during the course, which will alternate between theoretical reviews and exercises. The theory will be reviewed with practical examples. You will also have the opportunity to test your progress in a mock exam.

• Introduction to MSP and definition of a programme and the basic components an MSP programme consists of.
• Overview of the principles that form the foundation in MSP, as well as how the 7 principles are used during the programme’s life cycle
• Overview of the seven management themes in MSP and how each theme supports programmes, risks, and quality assurance.
• MSP-life cycle: A review of the processes in a programme
• MSP Foundation exam preparation with a review of typical exam questions related to key areas of the MSP e-book
• How to structure your time during the exam.

After the course you can book your exam by using your exam voucher. It is a pre-requisite that you have participated in the course before you can take the exam. As Peak Consulting Group does not have exam rooms available, it is not possible to take the exam at the end of the course. • 60 minutes duration
• It consists of 60 multiple choice questions
• To pass you will need to answer 36 question correctly.
• The exam is online, closed book and you need to bring your own computer.

Our trainers are highly experienced consultants, actively providing advice and assistance in relation to project, programme, and portfolio management. They bring both a high level of practical experience and theoretical knowledge to the course. Teachers and materials are accredited by the examination institute. A danish accredited teacher runs the course. Certification, manual and materials are in English.

• Official MSP e-book and pre-course workbook in English
• Comprehensive course materials useful as a reference guide after the course
• MSP Foundation exam
• Lunch, tea and coffee during the courseWould you like to purchase a physical book, please send an e-mail to: [email protected]

Please notice that this certification must be renewed every 3 years.

• If you have a MSP certificate from before 30 June 2020, your certification will expire on 30 June 2023.
• If you took your MSP certification after 30 June 2020, your certification expires 3 years after the date on your certificate.
This means that in the future you must renew your certification every 3 years if you want to keep your MSP certificate valid. If you are in doubt about when you have taken your exam, and thus when your certificate expires, you must log in to your PeopleCert profile, where you have access to your exams and certificates.
