Generate an Exam Module

You can generate an exam as a standalone learning module and allow learners to enroll in it as if it were a course. You can generate an exam module from any exam saved as a template.

To save an exam as a template, enable the "Is a Template" setting in the exam details.  For additional information, please see Exam Editor Details Field Reference.

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).

To generate an exam module

  1. Go to Manage Center > Learning > Exam and Questions Manager > Exams. 
  2. Select Generate Exam Module from the + Create Exam drop-down list. 
  3. Select the Exam Pool containing the exam you want to generate.
  4. Select the Exam template from the drop-down list. (This list shows only exams marked as templates.)
  5. Select the Enrollment Type. You can change the enrollment type in the Security tab in the Exam Editor.
  6. Select the start and end dates for the exam's availability to learners.
  7. Click Generate. A dialog opens to tell you if the exam was successfully generated.
  8. Click Edit Exam to update the exam details, or Open Catalog Editor to configure the learning module.
