PRINCE2F PRINCE2 Processes Practice Question
Which TWO of the following are responsibilities of the Project Board?
⚠ Common exam trap
PeopleCert often tests the distinction between strategic governance (Project Board) and operational management (Project Manager), so candidates mistakenly assign day-to-day tasks like updating logs or producing reports to the board.
