If you use quizzes in iSpring Suite<\/a>, you’ll love our latest update! We’ve rolled out a major improvement that gives you more control when setting up course completion rules.<\/p>\n

Now, instructional designers and course creators can define what “completion” and “success” mean for each course — no predefined rules required. In this article, we’ll break down all the new capabilities in detail, so you can make the most of them in your eLearning projects.<\/p>\n

What’s New?<\/h2>\n

\"\u2705\" Set course completion and success criteria independently.<\/p>\n

\"\u2705\" Create multiple learning paths with custom completion rules.<\/p>\n

\"\u2705\" Enjoy a cleaner, more intuitive interface for configuring popular training scenarios.<\/p>\n

8 Smart Ways to Use the New Course Settings<\/h2>\n

1. Open-access courses<\/h3>\n

Perfect for informational or optional courses that don’t require progress tracking. Just disable all completion conditions — the course will be marked as complete as soon as it’s launched.<\/p>\n

\"Unrestricted<\/div>\n

2. Highlight key content with required slide viewing<\/h3>\n

Make sure learners focus on essential material by making specific content mandatory. You can require learners to view a certain number of slides, a percentage of the course, or designated sections.<\/p>\n

For example, group your intro and key slides into a section and mark it as required.<\/p>\n

\"Slide<\/div>\n

3. Completion based on final assessment only<\/h3>\n

Make the final quiz or test the sole requirement for course completion — a great option for certification or evaluation-based training.<\/p>\n

\"Course<\/div>\n

4. Separate rules for content and assessments<\/h3>\n

Slide viewing and assessment results are now handled independently. Slide progress no longer affects scoring — only assessments and evaluated interactions count toward completion.<\/p>\n

\"Separate<\/div>\n

5. Quizzes after each module<\/h3>\n

Reinforce learning with required quizzes at the end of each module. Set passing scores for each quiz to assess understanding at every stage.<\/p>\n

\"Multiple<\/div>\n

6. Unified scoring across multiple tests<\/h3>\n

Instead of one final test, use several shorter quizzes and apply a combined passing score. This keeps learners engaged and helps them absorb information in smaller chunks.<\/p>\n

\"Cumulative<\/div>\n

7. Create multiple learning paths<\/h3>\n

Let learners choose from different course tracks with unique completion rules — ideal for multilingual training or content customized for different roles, audiences, or brands.<\/p>\n

\"Multiple<\/div>\n

For example, you can start with a shared introduction, then branch into role-specific content learners select themselves.<\/p>\n

\"Multiple<\/div>\n

8. Adaptive learning with pre-assessments<\/h3>\n

Let experienced learners test out of a course by passing a pre-assessment. If they demonstrate strong knowledge up front, they can skip the main content and final test.<\/p>\n

\"Pre-Assessment<\/div>\n

Easily Check Completion Settings in the Publishing Dialog<\/h2>\n

In the publishing window, you’ll now see exactly which conditions are set for course completion. For example, if the course requires viewing all slides and passing the assessment, you’ll see:<\/p>\n

“The entire course is viewed and passed.”<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Publishing<\/div>\n

What About Existing Projects?<\/h2>\n

After updating iSpring Suite, you can start using the new settings right away. Existing courses will keep their original configurations, but you can update them anytime in the publishing dialog.<\/p>\n

\"\ud83d\udccc\" Note<\/strong>: We recommend not changing completion rules for courses already in progress, as this could affect how your LMS tracks learner results.<\/p>\n
