Generate an Exam Module

You can generate an exam as a standalone learning module, which learners can search for and enroll in as if it were a course. You can generate an exam module from any exam saved as a template (that is, where the Is a Template? check box is selected in the Exam Editor's Details tab).

You can make exams accessible to learners through self-enrollment, group enrollment or automatic enrollment. As with regular (non-module) exams, you can assign several layers of security to restrict its availability to learners and supervisors. For example, if you choose Assignment Access Code for the enrollment type, candidates must enter the code to launch the exam. For more information, see Configure Exam Security.

When you generate an exam as a module you must specify start and end dates for its availability. Generated exams have the same name as their template but a new ID. If you do not yet have start and end dates for the exam, instead of generating it as a module, you can import it as a resource (Manage Center > Learning > Import resource).
