The APMG-International Better Business Cases Foundation course is an ideal starting point for professionals involved in developing, reviewing, or approving business cases, particularly within the public sector. Based on HM Treasury’s Green Book guidance, the course introduces the Five Case Model, a proven framework used to create clear, structured business cases that support sound investment decisions and deliver meaningful public value.
Many change initiatives struggle to move forward because their business cases fail to demonstrate value or convince decision-makers. This course equips you with the skills to develop well-evidenced proposals that accurately scope initiatives, clearly outline the case for change, and secure senior management support and funding. You’ll learn to build effective public sector business cases, including the strategic outline business case, outline business case, and full/final business case, while exploring how iterative business cases evolve as programme or project needs change.
The training also focuses on developing quality spending proposals that promote transparent decision-making and ensure that public resources are used effectively. You’ll gain the knowledge to improve business case quality, support better investment outcomes, and build organisational confidence in project delivery.
Delivered over two days via live, tutor-led virtual classrooms, the course offers a flexible and interactive learning experience. You’ll work through real-life examples, take a mock exam, and receive full exam preparation to help you succeed in the official APMG examination. Upon completion, you’ll gain APMG certification and earn CPD hours towards your professional development.

Senior Responsible Owners

The Five Case Model is a structured approach for creating clear and comprehensive cases, commonly used in the UK public sector business cases, and is based on HM Treasury’s Green Book guidance. It ensures all critical elements of a project are carefully assessed, with well-defined objectives and rationale, before approval. The model focuses on five core areas:
Strategic case model
Economic case model
Commercial case model
Financial case model
Management case model
A strong business case outlines clear goals, justifies the project, and helps align with organisational priorities. It supports transparent decision-making, highlights risks, and ensures effective use of resources.
In project management, a well-structured business case builds trust, accountability, and boosts the chances of success.
OBC stands for Outline Business Case, which sets out the preliminary thinking and justification for a project. FBC, or Full Business Case, is a more detailed version developed after the OBC is approved, including finalised costs, plans, and procurement strategies.
A clear and effective business case sets out the project’s purpose, goals, and benefits, making it easier to align with organisational priorities. It uses data to support investment decisions, highlights potential risks with solutions, and ensures resources are used wisely.
The Foundation course is suitable for Project Managers, Business Analysts, Financial Planners, decision-makers, and anyone involved in project delivery who wants to build a strong foundation in business case development.
The APMG Better Business Cases Foundation exam questions can be challenging, but don't let that discourage you. With the skills and knowledge you’ll gain from this training, you’ll be well prepared to pass confidently.
