Program Management Professional (PgMP) — Question 102

You are the program manager for your organization and you're dealing with several issues about the materials used in the program. Right now, the issues have been assigned to issue owners for resolution in ten days. In the interim, what should you do with the issues?

Answer options

• A. Nothing - the issue owners will manage all concerns with the issues.
• B. Record the issues in the issue register.
• C. Communicate the issue status with the program sponsor.
• D. Document the issues in the risk register.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because documenting the issues in the issue register is essential for tracking progress and ensuring accountability. Option A is incorrect as it neglects the program manager's role in oversight. Option C, while important, does not directly address the immediate action needed for issue management. Option D is also incorrect because the risk register is meant for potential risks, not current issues.
