PRINCE2F PRINCE2 Processes Practice Question
During the Closing a Project process, which document is produced to capture lessons for future projects?
⚠ Common exam trap
PRINCE2F often tests the distinction between the Lessons Log (ongoing) and the Lessons Report (produced at closing), tricking candidates into selecting the Log or the End Project Report instead of the specific Lessons Report.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Lessons Report
During the Closing a Project process, the Lessons Report is produced to capture lessons learned for future projects. It summarizes the lessons from the Lessons Log and other sources, providing recommendations for future projects. The Lessons Report is included in the End Project Report or as a separate document, depending on the project's approach.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Lessons Log
Why it's wrong here
The Lessons Log is maintained throughout the project and updated during Closing a Project; the process produces the End Project Report, which embeds the lessons report. It is tempting because lessons are indeed captured at closure, and the log would be the correct artefact to consult when reviewing entries recorded during earlier stages.
- ✓
Lessons Report
Why this is correct
The Lessons Report is the PRINCE2 product created during Closing a Project, capturing lessons learned throughout the project so they can be fed into future projects and the organisation's lessons log. It satisfies the stem's requirement to record lessons at project closure.
- ✗
Project Plan
Why it's wrong here
The Project Plan is baselined during Initiating a Project and updated via stage boundaries; Closing a Project produces the End Project Report, not a plan. It is tempting because closure compares actual against planned performance, and the plan would be the correct document to reference when evaluating whether the project delivered its baseline.
- ✗
End Project Report
Why it's wrong here
The End Project Report reviews performance against the Project Initiation Documentation and records lessons, but the Lessons Report is the document specifically produced during Closing a Project to pass learning to future projects. The End Project Report is tempting because it also captures lessons, yet its purpose is evaluating project success, not transferring lessons.

Same concept, more angles
2 more ways this is tested on PRINCE2F
These questions test the same concept from different angles. Work through them to make sure you can recognise it however the exam phrases it.
Variation 1. During the Closing a Project process, which document is produced to capture lessons for future projects?
medium- A.Project Product Description
- B.Benefits Management Approach
- C.End Project Report
- ✓ D.Lessons Report
Why D: The Lessons Report is the specific PRINCE2 management product produced during the Closing a Project process to capture lessons learned throughout the project so they can be passed on to future projects and the wider organization. It is derived from the Lessons Log and reviewed at project closure to ensure knowledge transfer. The End Project Report summarizes project performance but is not the dedicated vehicle for lessons.
Variation 2. In the Closing a Project process, which document is produced to capture lessons learned for future projects?
medium- ✓ A.Lessons Report
- B.Project Product Description
- C.End Project Report
- D.Benefits Management Approach
Why A: In PRINCE2, the Closing a Project process includes the activity 'Prepare planned closure' and 'Prepare premature closure', where lessons learned are captured and documented in the Lessons Report. This report is then passed to the project board and made available to the organization for future projects.
