Program Management Professional (PgMP) — Question 275

Which of the following program process outputs includes causes of variances from the program management plan, corrective actions taken and their outcomes, risk mitigations, and other information of value to management and stakeholders of future programs?

Answer options

• A. Lessons learned
• B. Supporting details
• C. Program management plan updates
• D. Assumptions

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer, 'Lessons learned', captures the essential insights gained from the program, including causes of variances and corrective actions. The other options do not encompass the comprehensive learning aspect that informs future programs, as 'Supporting details' and 'Program management plan updates' do not focus on the retrospective analysis, while 'Assumptions' simply outlines expectations without exploring outcomes.
