PRINCE2F PRINCE2 Practices Practice Question
In the Progress practice, who receives the Highlight Report?
⚠ Common exam trap
A common pitfall in PRINCE2 exams is confusing who produces the Highlight Report (Project Manager) with who receives it (Project Board). Also, candidates may incorrectly think that individual Project Board members like the Senior User receive the report separately, but it is sent to the entire Project Board.

Correct answer & explanation

Project Board
The Highlight Report is a progress report that provides the Project Board with a summary of the project's status at a frequency defined in the Communication Management Approach. It is specifically designed to keep the Project Board informed of progress, achievements, and any issues or risks that require their attention. The Project Board is the sole recipient of the Highlight Report, as they are responsible for overall project governance and decision-making.
