A. Hiring another contractor to accelerate a project
B. Replacing a new employee with a more experienced one to ensure better quality
C. Buying insurance against weather impacting a construction schedule

Answer: C. Buying insurance against weather impacting a construction schedule
When transferring as a risk response strategy, the risk is either completely or partially shifted to a third party. The risk is not actually removed entirely though, rather the responsibility has simply been reassigned. Insurance is a common method to transfer a risk.]]></description>

A. Reschedule the meeting date to Tuesday.
B. Extending the meeting end time from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
C. Switching the conference to a video teleconference.
D. Changing the start time from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM.

Answer: C. Switching the conference to a video teleconference.
Risk avoidance must eliminate the threat entirely. Reduction of probability or impact would be mitigation. In this case, although a video teleconference may not be as effective, the risk was completely avoided if that is the intended goal.]]></description>
