Whenever a user answers a quiz or exam question or completes a hands-on lab, the system estimates the user's level of knowledge of the skills that the quiz, exam, or hands-on lab evaluates. It updates a skill score based on several pieces of data, such as the question's difficulty and the correctness of the user's answer.
At the end of the quiz, exam, or hands-on lab, users see updated skill scores on their own Skill Profile. If the user is a member of an enterprise account, the system also updates the leader board so the user can compare skill scores to other members at the company. Administrators, stakeholders, and team managers can see their teams' scores on the Skill Profile dashboard.
