Creating Quizzes

OVERVIEW

The primary purpose of a Quiz is to test end users' knowledge of one or more subjects. As a Quiz, answers can be scored as 'right' or 'wrong', and on completion the employee can receive a ‘score card’ with their results.

A Quiz provides you with a way to test the knowledge of your staff around a particular topic - examples could include Compliance, Health and Safety policy or just a fun trivia quiz.
