		<description><![CDATA[On a project to build a new corporate intranet, the project manager makes a request that you, her mentor, to help her collect requirements. She lays out a plan and asks you if you prefer to help her with interviewing stakeholders or creating prototypes. However, before deciding, you want to ensure that she is ready to start this step. Which of the following is the most appropriate?

A. Review the WBS to ensure that the tasks are necessary
B. Ask her if which task she needs more guidance with
C. Ensure that the schedule is realistic and can accommodate both tasks
D. Ask her if she has an approved project charter

Answer: D. Ask her if she has an approved project charter
The project charter, along with stakeholder register, is an input to the Collect Requirements process. Without the approved charter, the project does not exist and therefore, any requirements work would be premature. None of the other choices should even be considered unless the charter is signed, which gives the project the go-ahead.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While gathering requirements for a new community playground, you realize that the best thing for you to do is to create conceptual models and get approvals from the board after each step. What term best describes the models that you are creating?

A. Focus groups
B. Pilots
C. The Delphi technique
D. Prototypes
