PRINCE2F PRINCE2 Processes Practice Question
Which TWO of the following are outputs of the Initiating a Project process?
⚠ Common exam trap
PeopleCert often tests the distinction between inputs and outputs of the Initiating a Project process, specifically confusing the Project Brief (an input from Starting Up a Project) with an output, and the Checkpoint Report (a Controlling a Stage product) with a process output.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Risk Management Approach
The Risk Management Approach and Benefits Management Approach are both management products created during the Initiating a Project process. The Risk Management Approach defines how risk will be managed throughout the project, while the Benefits Management Approach defines how the project's benefits will be realized and measured. These are documented in the Project Initiation Documentation (PID) and are key outputs of this process.

- ✗
End Project Report
Why it's wrong here
The End Project Report is produced during Closing a Project.

This approach formalises the link between project outputs and business objectives.
