What best describes a program in project management?

  1. A software tool used for project planning

  2. A temporary endeavor with a start and end date

  3. A group of unrelated projects managed independently

  4. A group of related projects managed in a coordinated way

The correct answer is: A group of related projects managed in a coordinated way

A program in project management is a group of related projects that are managed together in a coordinated way. Option A is incorrect because a program is not necessarily a software tool, but rather a collection of projects. Option B is incorrect because a program can have multiple projects within it, and may not have a defined start and end date. Option C is incorrect because a program involves related projects, not unrelated ones. Therefore, option D, a group of related projects managed in a coordinated way, best describes a program in project management.
