Created by Amanda Lowndes, Modified on Wed, 3 Jul at 4:06 PM by Amanda Lowndes

After your training course and test you will be asked to complete the course assessment. If you agree, the assessment will open. You can also open a course assessment from your Atlas Dashboard or your training session.


To open a course assessment from Atlas Dashboard:

  1. Click the Assessments tab on the menu bar at the top of the page to show your assessments.
  2. Choose your assessment from the list and click Start new assessment.


To open a course assessment from your training session:

  1. Click the Assessment link on the right of the video player to scroll to Assessment.
  2. Click Open assessment to show your assessments.
  3. Choose your assessment from the list and click Start new assessment.


After opening your assessment, the assessment status changes to In progress.

Note If your training administrator created the assessment for you, it will have a status of In progress


In progress phase

In this phase the assessment asks questions linked to your training, saves your responses and offers advice on how to resolve any issues.

Note Assessments are organised into topics. Outline lists the topics in the assessment, provides links to each topic, and shows the topic status. Topics that have all required responses and comments are ticked. Topics that contain unresolved issues without comments show an alert symbol and a counter.

To complete your assessment:


Read each question and click Yes or No to indicate your response.


If your answer highlights an issue, the topic will display an alert symbol and an advice bar will show some information to help you resolve the issue.


If you resolve the issue:To save your response with comments

Click the Add a comment button.

Type your comments. 

 Click Send and accept as resolved.


To save your response without commentsClick Send and accept as resolved.
If the issue is unresolved:

Click Add a comment to open the comment box. 

Type your comment explaining why the issue is unresolved. 

 Click Send.



Continue to respond to all the questions. You can save your responses at any time and resume the assessment later.

To save your responses and exit, scroll up to the top of the page and click Exit.

Note Your assessment status will be In progress until you have responded to all the questions in your assessment and added comments to any issues that you are not able to resolve.

If you have responded to all the questions and have unresolved issues with comments, Atlas LMS will ask you to Exit assessment. The assessment status will change to Pending review.


If you have responded to all the questions and there are no issues, Atlas LMS will ask you to Complete assessment. The assessment status will change to Completed.



Pending review phase

In this phase any issues that you cannot resolve are passed to your training administrator for review. If your administrator needs to suggest solutions or ask questions then your assessment status may change to In progress for you to respond.


Your assessment may alternate between In progress and Pending review status until all issues are resolved and the assessment is completed.



Completed Phase

In this phase there are no issues, the assessment is archived and cannot be changed.
