PRINCE2 Practitioner 6th Edition — Question 3

The senior user is concerned that the trainers' limited availability could delay their accreditation. This was discussed during the 'starting up a project' process, but during the 'initiating a project' process the project manager notices that it has not been recorded.
Which action should the project manager take FIRST?

Answer options

• A. Add appropriate activities to the project plan to manage the concern and avoid any adverse impact.
• B. Raise an exception report to manage the impact that any such delay would have on the project plan.
• C. Raise an issue report so that the trainers' time can be allocated to the accreditation activities.
• D. Add the information to the risk register so that it can be evaluated and an action decided.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because adding the information to the risk register allows for proper evaluation of the concern regarding trainer availability. This step ensures that the issue is officially recognized and can be managed accordingly. The other options focus on actions that may come later in the project management process rather than the immediate need to document the risk.
