Assigning Assessments

For Hiring

Share a 6-digit assessment code with job candidates. They access the assessment portal at your organization's URL, enter the code, and begin the test without needing a staff account.

For Compliance

Assign to specific departments, branches, or individual staff. Assigned staff receive a notification with a deadline to complete the assessment.

6-Digit Assessment Codes

Each assessment generates a unique 6-digit access code (e.g., 482917). This code:

• Can be shared verbally, via email, or printed on documents
• Has a configurable expiry (default: 7 days after generation)
• Can be regenerated if compromised
• Supports usage limits (e.g., valid for 50 uses)

Anti-Cheating Measures

Workforce Intelligence employs multiple layers of exam integrity protection:

• Copy/Paste Blocked — Right-click and keyboard shortcuts for copy/paste are disabled during the assessment
• Tab Switch Detection — If the candidate switches to another browser tab or application, a warning is recorded. After 3 tab switches, the assessment auto-submits.
• Fullscreen Enforcement — The assessment launches in fullscreen mode. Exiting fullscreen triggers a warning and counter.
• Question Randomization — Questions and answer options are shuffled for each participant
• Time Lock — Each question has a minimum time before "Next" becomes available (prevents rapid clicking through)
• IP Logging — IP address and device fingerprint are recorded with each attempt

Auto-Grading & Results

Multiple choice, multi-select, and true/false questions are graded automatically and instantly. Results include:

• Total score and percentage
• Pass/Fail determination
• Time taken vs. time allowed
• Per-question breakdown (correct/incorrect)
• Anti-cheating violation log

Compliance Certificates

Staff who achieve the passing score (80% for compliance assessments) automatically receive a digital compliance certificate:

• Certificate includes: staff name, assessment title, score, date, certificate number
• Certificates are downloadable as PDF from the staff portal
• Certificates have a configurable validity period (e.g., 12 months)
• Expiring certificates trigger renewal alerts at 90, 30, and 7 days before expiry

Analytics & Leaderboards

• Assessment Analytics — Average score, pass rate, time distribution, question difficulty analysis
• Staff Leaderboard — Rank staff by assessment scores within department or organization
• Compliance Dashboard — Track certification status across the organization, identify expiring and missing certifications
• Training Progress — Monitor individual and team completion rates for assigned training
