Grading Written Tests

As a manager or administrator of the platform, you have the ability to grade the Written Tests that are assigned to users under you in the account hierarchy, setting them as either Pass, Fail, and optionally provide some feedback to the user. The instructions in this article may vary slightly, depending on your specific account group.

There are two main modes when grading Written Tests for users: by Individual, and by Test. Although they differ in purpose, their navigation is very similar.

Navigation

Filters

A number of dropdowns are provided to help find the Written Test or Individual you are looking to Grade. The number of filters provided will differ depending on your account group.

Selecting an option in any one of these filters will reduce the number of options in the other filters, thereby making your search more precise. The final aim is to make a selection in the bottom right dropdown (this will either be Employee or Testsdepending on the current mode.

Browsing

Below the filter dropdowns is a table that allows you to browse to the Written Test or user that you're looking for. For the lowest-level managers, the table will usually immediately show the available Written Tests or users, but for higher-level managers that look over more areas and locations, the table may initially show Countries or Areas. Simply click on these Country, Area, or Location names to navigate to the item you are looking for.

Navigational table

When completing by Test, you may be required to first select an option in a dropdown, in situations where the table would be too large to show entirely.
