It's the easiest way to tailor a quiz or learning pathway assessment to your organisation's own policies and training goals.

Key features

Custom questions

Now you can build your own questions and add them straight to the Question Bank, so every quiz and pathway assessment can reflect your organisation's exact policies and training priorities. They're selected, edited and reused in exactly the same way as curated questions.

They support single choice and multiple choice question types, and must be linked to one of the existing topic categories listed above. Translations can be added for each custom question. Once published, a question is available immediately, and is visible to all admins within the organisation's own platform.

Multilingual and flexible

Curated questions are already available in multiple languages. Custom questions can also be added in multiple languages, so the same question works for teams across different regions - see Custom questions, below, for how translations are added. Curated questions cannot be edited within the Question Bank itself, but can be edited within the course creation area to match your organisation's training goals or policies.

Smart search and tagging

Advanced search and filtering options let you locate the most relevant questions by category, saving time and improving quiz relevance.

Adding a custom question to the Question Bank

Custom questions must be added to the Question Bank first, once added and published, they appear alongside curated questions at the quiz or assessment creation stage, and are selected the same way.

1. Navigate to Learning, select 'Question Bank'.
2. In the Question Bank area, select Add question.
3. Enter your question (max 500 characters).
4. Enter the answer text (max 300 characters each) and tick Correct answer against the right option or options.
5. Select + Add option to add further answer options, if needed.
6. Select a Category from the dropdown (the existing topic categories - see Topics covered, above).
7. Select a Default language.
8. Optional: select + Add language under Additional languages to make the question available in more languages. 
9. Select Publish question to make it available for selection, or Cancel to discard it.

Getting started: adding questions to a course quiz

1. Access the Question Bank

• Navigate to Fusion template creation.
• From the elements library, select Quiz.
• Select your default language, then select Create from question bank and select Confirm.

If multiple languages have been added to your template, questions display in your default language, and translations are applied automatically where available.

2. Search for questions

Use the search bar or filters to find relevant questions.

Custom questions you've added to the Question Bank appear here too, alongside curated questions.

3. Preview and select questions

• Select the expand icon to view the available answers.
• Use the checkboxes to select the questions you want to include.
• Select Add questions to insert them into your quiz.

4. Edit questions (optional)

Once added to a quiz, all question and answer text is fully editable, including custom questions.

5. Multilingual support

• Select View/Add translation to review or add additional languages.
• Select Analyse quiz to validate all questions and translations.
• If any translations are missing, a yellow warning message displays.

6. Finalise and close

• Review the quiz structure.
• Add any further questions from the Question Bank if needed.
• Configure quiz settings, including:
  • Show quiz summary
  • Show correct answers
  • Set pass mark
  • Shuffle questions
  • Number of displayed questions
• Select Close to return to your Fusion template.

Using custom questions in a learning pathway assessment

Custom questions, and the wider Question Bank, can also be used to build a learning pathway assessment.

Learning pathway assessments are built in a separate Learning pathways area, rather than Fusion template creation. From there, a pathway links out to courses.

Once in the assessment builder, the steps to search, select and add custom questions follow the same process as adding questions to a course quiz (see Getting started, above).

A course quiz and a pathway assessment are separate entities, but the same validation applies to custom questions in both - for example character limits and question type rules.
