Allowing users to self-register for a Respondent account

A Respondent portal allows test-takers to securely log in with a unique username and password to view and complete assigned quizzes.

There are three ways to create a Respondent portal:

  • Manually register: Admins and Trainers with user permissions can create an account for each user one at a time.
  • Bulk upload: Generate multiple user accounts by completing and uploading the FlexiQuiz user spreadsheet.
  • Self-registration: Allows users to self-register for an account.
