Which THREE of the following are outputs of the project initiation process? (Choose three.)
⚠ Common exam trap
The PK0-005 exam often tests the distinction between initiation and planning outputs, so the trap here is that candidates mistakenly select the WBS or project management plan because they are early deliverables, but they are formally part of the planning process group, not initiation.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Project charter
The project charter is a key output of the initiation process because it formally authorizes the project and provides the project manager with the authority to apply organizational resources to project activities. It documents the business case, high-level scope, objectives, and key stakeholders, serving as the foundational document that transitions the project from concept to execution.
