PRINCE2F People: organizations, teams, and leadership Practice Question
Which PRINCE2 role is responsible for ensuring that the project's products meet the required quality criteria?
⚠ Common exam trap
PeopleCert often tests the distinction between the roles responsible for defining quality criteria (Senior User) versus those responsible for performing quality activities (Project Manager) or providing independent assurance (Project Assurance), leading candidates to confuse the 'doing' with the 'owning' of quality.
