What are quizzes?
In SafetyCulture, there are two types of quizzes that can enhance your teams' learning experience and keep them engaged:
Lesson quizzes let you create engaging and interactive quizzes within your course lessons. You can choose from different types of quizzes, such as multiple-choice, true or false, sentence builder, drag-to-match, and more. You can also add feedback to each question to provide users with more information about the correct answer.
Rapid Refresh Quizzes are an efficient way to re-engage team members who may have forgotten their learnings from training courses. With Rapid Refresh, you can deliver tests at regular intervals to check your teams' understanding and reinforce knowledge retention. You can also set up questions using a simple Excel template. You’ll have access to timely analytics and gain insight into individual and group performance.
You need to have the "Training: Manage content (all)" permission to create Rapid Refresh quizzes for your training.
Please note that a Rapid Refresh quiz can't be edited once it's created, so be sure to check your Excel file of questions and answers before uploading and creating a quiz.

You can see your score out of 100% on the progress bar when you open a course.
Depending on the level of information you want to access, you can view your team's scores in the following:
Performance dashboard: Offers an in-depth view of your team's performance, including course completion, progression rate, and scores at the course, group, and user levels. This helps you gain insights and improve training content.
Course completion by user: Provides a simple view of courses assigned to a user and their progress for each course.
The cause depends on the error you're getting when you upload the Excel file. Some of the most common errors include:
"The uploaded template must contain at least one question."
It's likely due to the "FILL ME OUT" sheet in your Excel file not having any questions in column B. Please check your Excel file and make sure you've entered your questions on the correct sheet and column.
"Number of possible answers is less than required." or "Correct answers column is empty." or "Follow up text column is empty."
It's likely the fields mentioned in the error are blank. Please check your Excel file and ensure the following:
Each question has at least two possible answers (columns C and D).
At least one correct answer (column I) is provided for each question.
Follow up text (column J) has been provided for each question.
"Correct answers must point to existing answers." or "Correct answers column must be in the 'A, B, C' format."
It's likely that what you've entered in the correct answer field (column I) doesn't correspond to one of the answers. Please make sure the correct answer is entered as "A", "B", "C", etc. Not the actual answer value itself.
For example, if the correct answer ("This is correct") is answer B in column D, enter "B" instead of "This is correct".
No, once a quiz is scheduled, it can no longer be unpublished or reverted to draft. However, some settings can still be updated while the quiz is ongoing, such as its title and description, as well as who it's assigned to.
You can view the quiz results in training analytics.
Select
Training from the menu on the left-hand side.Click
Analytics at the top of the page and select Rapid Refresh.On this page, you can view the results by quiz, user, or question.
Yes, you can. When preparing your questions in the Excel file, enter the correct answers in the "Correct Answer(s) (required) Choose at least one" column. For example, if answers A, C, and E are the correct answers, then enter "A, C, E".
