πŸ“ Important! Assessments aren't "live;" they won't dynamically reflect any updates you make to the skills they contain. They're more like snapshots: they include skill content exactly as it was at the time of the assessment's creation. If you make changes to a skill, and want those changes reflected in a past assessment, you must create the assessment anew.


Assessment Types

For more information on each assessment type, review the linked articles.

Note: Performance metrics only appear if the team you selected has a skill mapped to a performance metric. If you haven't created any performance metrics this option won't appear in the dropdown menu.
