Overview
A Quiz Chapter allows you to test new hires' knowledge and make the onboarding experience more interactive. For example, you can create a quiz about company policies, safety procedures, or important information employees have learned during their onboarding.
You can use Quiz Chapters for several purposes:
Engagement: Make onboarding more interactive by encouraging new hires to answer questions.
Knowledge assessment: Check whether new hires have understood important information.
Customisation: Adjust your quiz with different questions and time limits.
You can add a Quiz Chapter directly to a Story from the Course Timeline.
📌 Note:
The Pages within a Quiz Chapter are displayed as one continuous quiz in the New Hire app.
New hires go through the Pages in a fixed order and cannot open them individually.

Once you've created your Quiz Chapter, you can add Pages containing your quiz questions.
Find the Quiz Chapter in the Course Timeline.
Click the arrow next to the Chapter to expand it.
Click the option to add a new Page.
Select the question type you want to use.
Enter your question and the possible answers.
Mark the correct answer and add an explanation if needed.
Save the Page and repeat these steps for the remaining questions.
📌 Note:
Each correct answer earns one point.
Incorrect answers or questions that aren't answered within the time limit receive no points.
During the first attempt, the Retry and Previous buttons are hidden.
New hires can review the quiz later, but their original score is retained.
→ Add a Score Page
We recommend ending your Quiz Chapter with a Score Page. This allows new hires to see their total score after completing the quiz.
A Score Page helps new hires understand their results and gives them an overview of how well they performed.
To add a Score Page:
Expand the Quiz Chapter in the Course Timeline.
Click the option to add a new Page at the bottom of the Chapter.
Select Score as the Page type.
Give the Page a clear title.
Add a short explanation if needed, for example: "Here's your score. Well done on completing the quiz!"
Save the Page.
📌 Tip:
You can also place a Score Page halfway through a Quiz Chapter to show new hires their progress before continuing.
For more information, see our article How to Add a Score Page.
→ Preview Your Quiz
Before making your quiz available to new hires, you can preview how it will look.
Open the course in the Course Editor.
Click Preview in the top-right corner.
Go through the quiz and check the questions, answers, and time limits.
Make sure the Score Page is displayed correctly.
Close the preview to make any necessary adjustments.
