Sample Questions from PRINCE2 Agile Foundation

Preview a few questions below — answers are revealed when you take the exam.

1. A team is working on a project with frequent changes in requirements. What approach should they take to manage these changes effectively within the PRINCE2 Agile framework?

   • Implement a strict change control process to minimize changes and ensure project stability.
   • Adopt an Agile approach where changes are welcomed, and the team adapts to them through iterative development.
   • Use a Waterfall model to ensure that all requirements are gathered upfront and changes are minimized.
   • Apply a hybrid model where critical changes are managed through PRINCE2 and minor changes through Agile.

2. In a PRINCE2 Agile project, how should a team handle a situation where the product owner is unavailable for a critical decision?

   • Postpone the decision until the product owner returns, even if it delays the project.
   • Empower the team to make the decision based on the project's goals and available information.
   • Assign the decision-making responsibility to the project manager.
   • Seek an external consultant to make the decision on behalf of the product owner.

3. Identify the best practice for integrating PRINCE2 and Agile methodologies in a project with both predictable and unpredictable elements.

   • Use PRINCE2 for the predictable elements and Agile for the unpredictable elements.
   • Apply PRINCE2 for the entire project and incorporate Agile practices within the PRINCE2 framework.
   • Choose either PRINCE2 or Agile based on the project manager's preference.
   • Alternate between PRINCE2 and Agile methodologies in different project phases.

4. Consider a scenario where a project team is struggling to maintain momentum due to frequent changes in priorities. Which method solves this problem best within the PRINCE2 Agile framework?

   • Implement a strict prioritization process using MoSCoW (Must have, Should have, Could have, Won't have) to manage changes effectively.
   • Adopt a flexible approach where the team adapts to changes without formal prioritization.
   • Use a Kanban board to visualize work and limit work in progress, ensuring steady progress.
   • Apply a hybrid approach combining PRINCE2's change control with Agile's iterative development.

5. Which option best evaluates the effectiveness of using PRINCE2 Agile in a project with tight deadlines and evolving requirements?

   • Assess the project's ability to deliver value incrementally and adapt to changes while meeting deadlines.
   • Evaluate the project based on its adherence to the initial plan and timeline, regardless of changes.
   • Measure the project's success by the number of features delivered within the deadline.
   • Determine the effectiveness by the team's satisfaction with the methodology used.
