Export an Assessment for Offline Answering

Currently, users on the platform can export any active assessment in Excel or PDF format to answer offline. Users can also use the assessment export option to create offline records, share results more widely within their organizations, and quickly reuse answers.

Please Note: Issues must be responded to and answered from the platform as they are not part of the actual export template. Responding to issues is currently not supported for answering offline.

Importing Offline Answers

Once you have completed your offline answers for the assessment, you can then import said offline answers. Please see our help article for a complete walkthrough on importing offline answers: Import Offline Answers in an Assessment

Please note: PDFs may default to open by the browser's PDF Viewer, however some answer types and features are not available for answering in this view. We recommend opening and answering assessments offline using Adobe Acrobat Reader which will have most answering capabilities available.
