Assignments are question-based content items that support both MCQ and subjective (open-ended) questions. MCQ answers are scored automatically, while subjective answers require manual evaluation by a trainer or manager.
Assignments are added at the module level. A module cannot contain other content alongside an assignment – add it in a dedicated module.
