PRINCE2 Exam PRINCE2-Practitioner Topic 1 Question 76 Discussion

Actual exam question for PRINCE2's PRINCE2-Practitioner exam

Question #: 76
Topic #: 1

During the 'starting up a project' process, the project manager discusses the standard model for course development with the executive. The project manager then assesses how the Health and Safety Training Project will be delivered, including what products should be delivered in each stage.

Is this an appropriate way to carry out the 'plan the initiation stage' activity, and why?

AYes, because the work of the initiation stage needs to be planned and approved, in the same way as other project work.

BYes, because the management controls for the initiation stage need to be defined and approved by the project board.

CNo, because subsequent stages are planned in the initiation stage as part of creating the project plan.

DNo, because the senior supplier is responsible for assessing the viability of the project approach.
