New Version from Assessments Home

To create a new version of an assessment from the Assessments Home page, click the ... button to the right of the current version of the assessment. Select the Create Version option from the menu that appears.

The administrator can make any textual or structural changes needed. When all the desired changes have been made, the administrator can click the Publish Version button to finish creating the new version of the assessment.

New Version from Assessment Builder

When editing the current version of an assessment using the Assessment Builder, only textual changes can be made to the assessment. If the administrator would like to make structural changes to the assessment, a new version of the assessment must be created by clicking the Create Version button.

After any needed changes have been made, the administrator can click the Publish Version button to publish the new version of the assessment.

    • Any combination of transcript statuses can be selected, including Not Started, In Progress (which includes Failed), or Completed.

    • Selection of individual users, organizational units (OUs), or groups outside of the above statuses are not supported.
