A scenario quiz from the live deck: a teammate's joke lands badly, which is a safe first move?

What's included

Three pieces that work together

Learners prepare on their own, you answer questions live, and the surveys tell you what stuck.

The course card in AhaSlides

8 fields to fill in with your own policy, contacts and locations; each one is highlighted inside the course.

See who finished

Completion is tracked for you

Learners sign in to take the course, so every start, finish and score is recorded in AhaSlides. No spreadsheet to keep.

  • Who has finished

    See who has not started, who is in progress and who has completed the course.

  • Every score

    Each learner's result on the 12-question final check, against the 80% pass mark.

  • What landed

    Survey results show what people took away, and the 30-day check-in shows whether they use it.
