What is…?

Answer 4

Answer 4

 

Dimension - the question is uploaded and it is mapped specifically to that Standard and KSB

The versioning is key here in the dimension, as items need to be tagged to the new version, a new exam blueprint would be needed too for any new versions.

So in epaPRO Assess if you select L4 Construction Site Supervisor, it will pick up the exam blueprint tagged to that version and generate a set of questions based on that.

The version control is very important within the backend of risr/ assess.

 

New Standard Versions & Duplication

To prevent duplicate items, where a new version of a standard has come out, but the new version doesn't have new questions. The existing question would be tagged to both versions e.g. 1.0 and 1.1

Need to ensure the blueprint in the system is not showing both versions - they need to be separate versions for the candidate feedback report.

Images

If you have images you can reference an image file and add that in at the same time as the import.

Select Import Items → when you select the type of import - the sample import file is available to download from there.

 

Import

If you are happy that you have qa’d your questions then you can automatically approve them - we would recommend though that you select No for this. It just adds another level of QA for your organisation.

You then follow the guidelines on page:-
