Program DPro

Welcome to the Program DPro Practice / Sample Test.

This test allows you to practice a few questions of a DPro the certification exam. It helps to get into contact with the real exam questions (similar - not same questions). At the end of the practice test, you will be able to check your results and the correct answers.

You will also be invited to take a full practice / sample exam at a platform that has the same design, environment, and features. The full practice is important as it also tests your device for compatibility with the real exam platform.

Important notes:

Questions on this sample exam ARE NOT the same of the actual exam. These questions provide an overall idea of type of questions that you will find in the actual exam.
This is a practice exam - it is not valid as a DPro certification and it does not grant you any certificate or other document.
We recommend that you also take the Sample Exam at the PM4NGOs Sample Exams Platform.

Why do Program Managers need to work with Project Managers to update Risk Registers in a coordinated way?

Because it is a donor requirement and important insurance should a project fail to achieve program goals.

Because it’s good practice. Project Managers will then go on to share information with each other, allowing the Program Manager to focus on higher level responsibilities.

Because Project Managers must all have an understanding of program level risks.

Because project risks may have an impact at the program level.
