Project acceptance criteria require on-site training for new system users. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the team must work remotely indefinitely. What should the project manager do?

The correct answer is to document the project issue and provide options. This is a best practice for project managers when faced with a significant deviation from the project plan, especially one affecting acceptance criteria. The project manager identifies the problem (inability to conduct on-site training), analyzes potential solutions (e.g., online sessions, revised training materials, delayed training), and presents these options to relevant stakeholders (e.g., project sponsor, client) for a decision. This approach ensures transparency, stakeholder involvement, and a formally approved path forward. Rescheduling on-site training to online sessions might be a viable option, but the project manager should not unilaterally make this decision without stakeholder consultation, as it impacts the acceptance criteria and potentially the project scope or quality. Creating a risk and assigning remediation actions is incorrect because this is no longer a potential future event; it is a current issue that has already occurred. Canceling all on-site training sessions is an extreme measure that would likely violate acceptance criteria and should only be considered after exploring other options and consulting stakeholders.
