		<description><![CDATA[You and your sponsor agree to actively accept the quality risk of using a non-certified engineer on the project. What will you be doing?

A. Nothing. You will only react if the risk event occurs.
B. Find a way to decrease the probability or impact of the risk.
C. Create a contingency plan in the event the risk event occurs.
D. Insure the risk so your company can be compensated if the risk event occurs.

Answer: C. Create a contingency plan in the event the risk event occurs.
Active acceptance means that you create a contingency plan but do not implement it unless the risk event occurs. Typically this strategy is for risks that have a low probability and/or low impact. Decreasing probability or impact is a mitigation response while insurance is a transfer response.]]></description>
