PMI - Module 3

The most appropriate definition of a major problem is:

• a large, formally defined problem that will impede the progress of a project, about which no agreement has been reached and that the team cannot resolve on its own
• a formally defined major problem that will impede the progress of a project and that the project team can easily solve
• a big problem that can be formally defined if needed
• a formally defined major problem that will impede the progress of a project and will have a minor impact

During project execution, the number of project team members increased from 10 to 15. How many potential communication channels should be added?

Risk identification is initially carried out during:

• development of the project charter
• the development of the schedule
• schedule management
• managing changes

Qualitative risk analysis

• subjectively assesses each risk event to determine its likelihood and impact
• uses analytics to determine exact impact on cost, schedule and effort
• applies objective criteria to each risk to determine the risk category
• uses mathematical techniques to arrive at a more objective analysis of risk

A positive risk is:

• a risk that would be taken voluntarily by the team in order to obtain a benefit for the project
• a future event that is likely to be successful and will bring little benefit to the project
• an event that may or may not occur in the future, with a high probability of success and low benefit to the project
• none of the above

The risk management process includes:

• risk identification, quantitative risk analysis, risk response, risk monitoring and control
• risk identification, qualitative risk analysis, quantitative risk analysis
• risk identification, risk response, risk monitoring and control
• risk identification, qualitative risk analysis, quantitative risk analysis, risk response planning, risk monitoring and control .
