The document is a sample question and answer from the PMP exam. The question asks where to find acceptance criteria for a work package before beginning work. The answer is the WBS dictionary, which provides detailed information for each work package, including description of work, schedule milestones, quality requirements, and acceptance criteria. The hint and explanation note that the WBS dictionary is an output of the Create WBS process and contains the needed acceptance criteria information.

SAMPLE Q & A

2. You are part of a project team designing a new type of vehicle. You are about to begin work on a
work package for the braking system of the vehicle and want to review the acceptance criteria
before starting the work.
Where can you find this information?
A. Project management plan
B. Activity attributes
C. Requirements documentation
D. The WBS dictionary
HINT: This document is developed during the Create WBS process.
Question

3. The correct answer is D.
A work package is the lowest level of the WBS and provides a general description of the work to
be completed by this work package. The WBS dictionary supplements the WBS by including
more detailed information for each work package or other WBS components. The WBS dictionary
is an output of the Create WBS process and provides information such as the description of work,
schedule milestones, quality requirements, and acceptance criteria for each work package.
Therefore, the acceptance criteria for the work package to be completed are described in the
WBS dictionary.
Note, the wording of the question, "You are about to begin work on a work package...", suggests
that project execution has already begun, thus implying the project management plan including
all its components (such as the scope baseline that includes the WBS dictionary) has been
finalized and approved.
