ITPEC IP October 2021 Question 55

Conducting training to improve programming skills — developing the team's skills is part of project human resource management.

Project human resource management (resource management in the current PMBOK) plans roles and staffing, acquires the project team, develops it (training, team building) and manages it (performance, conflicts). Training the programmers raises the team's capability to the level the project needs.

Answer (d)

Why not others:

• •(a) — deciding which deliverables the external design phase creates is scope management
• •(b) — creating a schedule for the integration test is schedule (time) management
• •(c) — estimating personnel costs is cost management, even though the costs are for people

Key rule: Human resource management deals with the people themselves: roles, acquisition, development and team management; the money spent on them belongs to cost management.
