Type or paste the Assessment Name.

Select Quiz from the Assessment Type drop-down menu.

Next, select General from the Assessment Sub-Type drop-down menu.  

Within the same window, choose General from the Assessment Sub-Type drop down menu. Choosing General will let the Survey Magnet know that this Assessment will only show once per User.

Finally, select the Add Assessment button from the lower right corner.

As a reminder, a General (Overall) Quiz must be linked to a Survey Task in order for the end user to see the Quiz on their Task List.

In the next pop-up window, select the Quiz Options section using the left-hand navigation tabs.  Update the following settings to meet your events' needs.

Navigation Style - Choose Open if Users should be able to freely skip around questions in the quiz. Choose Linear if Users should only be able to complete the Quiz in sequential order of the questions.

Passing Score - Choose the minimum score the User must receive in order to pass the quiz.  The drop-down shows percentages in 5% increments.

Try Limit - Enter the number of times a User is able to take the Quiz in order to achieve the Passing Score.

Allow Users to View Results - Choose whether or not a User should see the results upon completion of the Quiz.  Then, decide if the correct answers should display within the results.

Allow Users to View Average Score - Choose whether or not the User can see the average score of all quizzes that have been completed thus far.

Pass/Fail/Incomplete Text - Enter the text the User will see upon completing and passing the quiz, the text they will see if they did not pass the quiz, and the text they will see if the quiz is not yet complete.

After all settings have been adjusted, select the SAVE CHANGES button toward the bottom right-hand corner of the window pop-up.

To add questions to the General (Overall) Quiz, select the row for the quiz on the Assessments page to see a row pop-up.  Then, select the Questions button (Fig. 5).
