Test Out of Training Modules

Security awareness training works best when it meets employees where they are. In most programs, everyone assigned to a campaign moves through every module the same way, regardless of whether they already know the material cold. For experienced employees who have seen the content year after year, that repetition adds seat time without adding much learning. It's one of the fastest ways for a training program to lose credibility with the people it's meant to protect.

Today, we are launching Test Out: a way for admins to let learners prove what they already know and skip a module's instructional content by passing a short assessment.

What's in Test Out

With Test Out enabled, a learner can take a short quiz at the start of a module. If they pass it, they skip that module's instructional content and move on. If they do not pass, they go through the full module as usual, so everyone still ends up covered. Admins can build the test-out quiz from quiz questions in their module, edit question content, and set pass thresholds for learners.

How It Fits Into Your Workflow

Admins enable Test Out in two steps: add an assessment to a module, then turn on Test Out when configuring the campaign. Modules with an assessment show a Test Out badge so it's clear where it's active.

Once enabled, learners see a short quiz at the start of the module and can test out by passing it.
