PRINCE2 is generally used within UK.

The rest of the world goes PMP.

It’s the same comparison as Coca Cola and Pepsi -they are both carbonated sugar water.  

 

With that said, in the Middle East they prefer everything American, so I would go with PMP.

The Projects IN Controlled Environments (PRINCE2) Certification

 

The PRINCE2, or ‘Projects IN Controlled Environments' certification, is a process-based project management method that offers a systematic method for delivering a successful project with clear templates, processes, and steps. The certification is both, process and project focused. PRINCE2 is administered in the UK by the APMG.A few features of PRINCE2 are as follows-

 

It is a broad, high-level, general framework of project management principles, which means it is recommended for and implemented on just about any kind of project.

It has a well-laid out and standardized approach to project management.

It spells out the roles and responsibilities of each member of the team tasked with managing the project.

It divides the master project plan into Project Plans, Stage Plans, and Team Plans, which eliminates ambiguity and makes it easier to execute the project.

It is both project and process-focused.Note that PRINCES2 is more streamlined and leads to teamwork without projecting a project manager which is better for the Middle East

Thanks for placing me question ...

I am based out in India and neither hold PMP nor Prince -2 but handling big projects successfully.

Bookish knowledge might be good who does not have caliber to work on ground and they always remains limited to bookish knowledge only..

 

Whereas the people have practical experience and reality of ground are much much better than bookish one
