Multiple Test-Outs in One Course

Hi there! I would love to create one course, with three distinct scenes (each covering a specific Compliance-related topic), that each start with a test-out (pre-test). If you pass test-out A with an 80%, you are exempt from Scene A and then move to test-out B. If you don't pass test-out B, you'll move on to the content in Scene B...and so on. I'd want to be able to track as much as possible about a user's experience - what they took, the questions they missed, etc. Does anyone have experience with something like this? Is this possible or should I move to either one test-out/one course OR 3 courses each with their own distinct test-out?

    The need to track questions complicates things. This articles describes the quiz data that Storyline submits to an LMS/LRS: https://access.articulate.com/support/article/quiz-data-sent-to-an-lms-in-articulate-storyline 

    The Reporting and Tracking Options window allows you to indicate one or more quizzes or other options to track completion.

    However, whatever option is done first is the one that gets reported to the LMS. And the course would be marked as completed at that point, too.

    The exception: if you have a quiz that's set as a Pre-Check plus a separate Final Assessment.

    In this case, if the user passes the Pre-Check, the data from that quiz will be submitted, and the course will be marked as completed. However, if the user fails the Pre-Check, Storyline will only submit the data from the Final Assessment.

    So, based on the info you want, I suggest you do three separate courses, each with its own Pre-Check and Final Assessment. That would ensure that folks don't need to view content if they know the answers to those questions.
