In this video, I’m showing you how you can allow learners to test out of content within an Articulate Storyline 360 course. I’ll preface this by saying that when creating test-out assessment items, you will want to ensure the assessment items are well-written and allow the learners to demonstrate mastery of the content for which they may be testing out of taking.
This strategy can be employed at the course level (e.g., testing out of a full course) or the module/topic level (testing out of a smaller chunk of content) and can be beneficial when there are concerns about length of time spent taking training or maintaining multiple versions of courses (e.g., one for existing employees and one for new hires). These are just a couple of use cases.
The programmatic setup is super simple – you’ll mainly be working with a test out intro slide, a draw from question bank, and a result slide. Passing the assessment funnels the learner to the end course slide whereas failing the assessment funnels the learner to the start of the content slides.
