PRINCE2F PRINCE2 Practices Practice Question
What is the purpose of the Quality Register?
⚠ Common exam trap
PRINCE2F often tests the confusion between different registers (Risk, Issue, Quality, Lessons), and candidates might incorrectly associate quality with lessons learned or risks.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
To record quality review results and quality check progress
The Quality Register is a PRINCE2 document used to record the results of quality reviews and the progress of quality checks. It provides a log of all quality activities, including who performed them, when, and the outcomes, ensuring that products meet their quality criteria. It is distinct from other registers like the Risk Register or Issue Register.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
To record quality review results and quality check progress
Why this is correct
The Quality Register records quality review results and quality check progress, tracking planned and completed quality activities for products. This satisfies the stem's requirement by providing the central log of quality review outcomes and the status of each quality check throughout the project.
- ✗
To record project risks
Why it's wrong here
The Quality Register records quality activities and results, such as planned quality checks and their outcomes. Risks belong in the Risk Register, which logs threats, opportunities, and responses. Recording risks here would leave quality assurance untracked, so it is tempting only when confusing the two registers' distinct purposes.
- ✗
To record issues raised by the team
Why it's wrong here
Issues raised by the team are captured in the Issue Register, which logs problems, concerns, and change proposals. The Quality Register instead tracks quality management activities and their results. Choosing this confuses issue management with quality control, leaving quality checks and their outcomes unrecorded.
- ✗
To record lessons learned
Why it's wrong here
Lessons learned are recorded in the Lessons Log, which captures experience for future projects. The Quality Register instead documents quality activities, methods, and results. Selecting this confuses organisational learning with quality management, so quality checks and their outcomes would go untracked.
