Project Management Professional Practice Question

A project manager is leading a complex software development project where several team members lack experience with a new programming language required for key tasks. The project sponsor is concerned about upfront costs and suggests that training should only be arranged if the team struggles during the execution phase. What is the project manager's best course of action?

  • Proceed with the project and arrange for just-in-time training during the execution phase only as skill-gap issues arise.

  • Explain to the sponsor that investing in training during the planning phase is essential for mitigating risks, preventing delays, and ensuring quality.

  • Replace the inexperienced team members with external contractors who already possess the required skills.

  • Agree with the sponsor to defer training costs, as this aligns with minimizing the initial project budget.
