PK0-004 Question #14: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

The correct answer is A: A program is a combination of multiple projects.. A program is a group of related projects managed together to achieve coordinated benefits that could not be obtained by managing each project independently.

Question

Which of the following describes how a project is related to a program?

Options

  • AA program is a combination of multiple projects.
  • BA program contains an element of the project.
  • CA program is a part of a project.
  • DA program uses half of the project's budget.

Explanation

A program is a group of related projects managed together to achieve coordinated benefits that could not be obtained by managing each project independently.

Common mistakes.

  • B. This reverses the relationship - a project is a component contained within a program, not the other way around; a program is not an element inside a single project.
  • C. A program is not subordinate to or a subset of a project; programs operate at a higher organizational level and encompass multiple projects within them.
  • D. Budget split ratios do not define the relationship between a project and a program - this is not a recognized project management concept.
