Basic Use Case: We have certification programs which end in a simulated, proctored exam. In brief, learners attend a VILT event, during which our facilitator unhides the test so the learners can take the exam, the learners take the exam, and we provide them results several days later. We tried administering the certification exam through Docebo but it is missing key functionality and doesn’t look very professional. So we tried authoring the tests with Articulate Quizmaker and Storyline, which is better but very buggy and deprecated. So what robust assessment authoring tools work well with Docebo?
Additional Context, In Case You Love Reading 
- We need the ability to incorporate informational screens within assessments. For example, a title slide that says, “Your timer is now active; you have 90 minutes to complete this exam.” and have it be incorporated into the exam, not in the course player page before the exam begins. We need slides introducing the topic of the next few questions, “Environment Configuration”. We need info presented just prior to submitting the exam the end of the exam that says, “You are about to submit your exam for scoring...”. Docebo cannot accommodate this when there are multiple categories and questions are randomized; it randomizes the title slides, too. Any CSS modifications affect ALL tests, not just our certification exams. (QuizMaker can accommodate this.)
- We need the ability to customize the look and feel of the certification exam. For example, add icons that act as hyperlinks to direct the learner to open-book resources, and make the exam look elevated and sophisticated. Docebo provides a very rudimentary view that basically allows showing one question per page, or many. It doesn’t handle code snippets very well, no customization of progress bars or timer views, etc.
- We need the ability to lock questions from a category to ensure they are asked. Example: I have a category that includes 20 questions and configure the exam to present five of them; I need to always ask one of those questions but the other four can be randomly selected. (Quizmaker accommodates this but Docebo does not without having to make an entirely different category, which makes reporting/evaluating results difficult.)
- We must be able to manipulate the results screen. Like a traditional proctored exam, our learners cannot know whether they passed or failed when they click Submit. We must have the ability to simply display a message that they will receive their results in several days. This can be done in Docebo only with CSS manipulation, which affects ALL tests, not just the certification exams we administer. QuizMaker/Storyline can accommodate this but then learners who try to review their exam immediately, before the ILT event is complete and the test is re-hidden, a bug allows them to see what they got right/wrong.
- We generally export as SCORM 2004 v3; we’ve also tried TinCan/xAPI
