Selected Answer: A

This ensures that the change is evaluated properly, taking into account its impact on scope, schedule, cost, and other project constraints. It also ensures that the decision to include or exclude the certification program is made transparently and with appropriate authority. Informing the project sponsor ensures that key decision-makers are aware of the request. This approach ensures that changes are managed systematically and in line with the project's governance structure.
