Question 1

As part of the 'authorize a work package' activity, the project manager is preparing the work package for the marketing materials. The project manager has asked the team manager for this work package to draft some specialist sections of the work package. The project manager and project assurance will review these sections before the work package is authorized. Is this an appropriate action, and why?

Options :

A : Yes, because project assurance is responsible for the work package being correctly authorized

B : Yes, because the project manager is responsible for authorizing the work package even if its preparation is delegated

C : No, because the project manager should produce the work package as part of the 'authorize a work package' activity

D : No, because the team manager should approve the work package once authorized by the project manager

Answer: B

Question 2

The project’s change control approach states that PRINCE2’s recommended issue and change control procedure will be used. The senior user has requested that a new set of marketing materials and marketing channels be introduced to support the launch of the training course. The senior user has suggested that this should be managed informally. Where should the project manager record the issue, and why?

Options :

A : In the daily log, because a change to a product at the default level can be handled informally

B : In the daily log, because the senior user has advised that this change should be informally.

C : In the issue register, because this is a request for change requiring a change to a baseline.

D : In the issue register, because issues should be recorded here first, before determining how to manage them

Answer: B

Question 3

During previous projects, stakeholders became confused when using a number of separate project registers. Therefore, when preparing the risk management approach, the project manager created a risk register template and added it to an integrated project register. This register is a spreadsheet that includes project assumptions, issues, dependencies, and now risks, on separate pages. Is this appropriate for a risk register, and why?

Options :

A : Yes, because the project registers should be tailored to meet the needs of the organization

B : Yes, because risks are often identified as a result of issues being raised.

C : No, because an integrated project register should include the quality register as well.

D : No, because assumptions and dependencies are sources of risk.
