PRINCE2 Foundation — Question 249

Which reason explains why the ‘learn from experience’ principle is important?

Answer options

• A. The temporary project team may not have delivered similar work
• B. Projects should contribute to the development of staff
• C. It helps to prevent projects duplicating other projects’ objectives
• D. User staff often do not have enough time to participate in project work

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because temporary project teams may lack previous experience with similar tasks, making the principle essential for leveraging past knowledge. Options B and C focus on staff development and preventing duplication, which, while important, do not directly address the learning aspect related to the team's experience. Option D is irrelevant as it pertains to user staff's time rather than the team's learning from past work.
