CIPS L5M8 Exam - Topic 1 Question 19 Discussion

Posted by Monroe on Aug 12, 2026 at 02:33 PM

The prediction of tomorrow's weather is considered to be which type of change situation?

Suggested Answer: B

Contained change refers to scenarios where outcomes can be predicted with a degree of probability, though not with complete certainty. Weather forecasting fits this --- not fully certain (like closed change), but predictable through data and modelling.

I’m confused about this one. I thought closed change was more about fixed systems, but weather seems too variable for that.

I remember a practice question about change types, and I feel like this one is similar. Could it be contained change?
