A Respondent portal is an intuitive interface for learners to manage quizzes and training activities personalized for them.

  • Shows scores and any certificates for quizzes the learner completes.
  • Learners can access their portal securely at any time, from any device. For added security, you can use two-factor authentication.

What are the benefits of a Respondent portal?

Centralized learning: A portal makes it easy for learners to find what they need. Activities they are required to complete, as well as previous results, certificates, and key information, are all in one place.

Sharing course content: A Respondent portal is a central place for learners to access all quizzes and activities part of a course.

Selling courses: You can create a course that learners can access anytime from their Respondent portal. Once the learner completes payment, they get a portal that allows them to access your content.

Monitoring learner progress: Admins and Trainers can access real-time reports to track a learner's performance across multiple quizzes. Reports show how a learner progresses and compares results to those of others in their group.

Encourages Continuous Learning: A portal gives learners 24/7 access to training, so learning becomes self-driven and ongoing. This supports personal growth, upskilling, and career development.

Managing groups of learners: You can assign Respondents to a group(s) such as a team, department or class. Learn more about groups.
