Why each option
A meeting to explain new internal processes is most directly triggered by a change in PMO standard requirements, as the PMO owns and enforces internal process standards.
A scope change would trigger a change control process and a scope review or change board meeting, not a meeting about new internal processes.
A sponsor requesting additional functionality would initiate a scope change request and review, not an internal process training session.
A team member leaving would prompt resource reassignment and onboarding activities, not a meeting about new internal process standards.
The PMO is the organizational body responsible for defining, maintaining, and communicating internal project management standards and processes. When PMO requirements change, all affected project teams must be briefed to ensure compliance with the new standards. A meeting specifically focused on new internal processes is the expected communication mechanism when the PMO updates its requirements.
