P3G – What is it?

…it is short hand for “projects, programmes and portfolio governance”;

and governance is one of the seven key pillars [or perspectives if you are referencing P3M3] in the management of portfolios, programmes or projects [P3M]. AHE Partnership are licensed Axelos P3M3 Assessors.

AHE Partnership is contributing and reviewing the new guidance

P3G has 10 principles and 3 practices which is clearly described in the new book written by P3 governance expert Ross Garland. The document is currently being reviewed by a number of global governance practitioners and it’s expected to be published in August of 2021 and made available to the wider public.

AHE Partnership Executive Director, Deb Hopkins-Hurt FBCS FAPM FAIPM, is one of the contributors and reviewers…providing some thoughts on assurance lessons to be learned from good, bad and ugly governance 😉

There will also be certification for a P3G Practitioner, and Ross, in the first instance, will be delivering the training course from August 2021.

The Project, Programme and Portfolio Governance Practitioner (P3GP) certification provides the theory, principles and practical advice on how to review, design, implement and maintain decision making frameworks that enable optimisation of an organisation’s investment in change – where change is the projects or programmes that comprise its portfolio.

AHE Partnership is looking forward to working with Ross and P3GQA as a delivery partner in the future.
