Creating a Quiz
Giving agents quizzes to measure and confirm their knowledge is a critical part of training. A quiz is used to check that trainees thoroughly understand the content, and also provides a great reference for targeted coaching sessions based on the questions trainees failed to answer correctly. You can create quizzes in the Questionnaires.
