Writing a quiz for onboarding without starting from zero

Onboarding courses often end with a knowledge check, but writing a rise onboarding quiz by hand takes hours of rereading slides and deciding which facts matter most. DeckOwl reads the material you already have and proposes questions that point back to specific sections.

  • Generate questions from slides, PDFs, DOCX files or notes
  • Mix multiple-choice, true/false and open questions in one quiz
  • Read an explanation for every answer to reinforce the lesson
  • Regenerate or edit questions when your onboarding content changes
Example onboarding quiz questions with answers
Why should each onboarding quiz question include an explanation?Explanations show why the correct answer is right, so a wrong guess turns into a learning moment rather than just a lost point.
True or false: A short quiz after onboarding can show which topics need a refresher.True. Missed questions point to the specific sections a new hire should review again.
To check whether a new hire understands a policy, which works better: a question that asks for a definition or a scenario question?A scenario question, because it asks the learner to apply the policy to a realistic situation instead of repeating a sentence from the slides.
What should the wrong options in a multiple-choice onboarding question be based on?Common misunderstandings, such as an outdated process or confusion between two similar tools, so the distractors also teach something.
When onboarding content is revised, what should happen to quiz questions tied to the old material?They should be updated or removed so new hires are not tested on steps or policies that no longer apply.

Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions

Pick the question types that fit each onboarding topic, from quick policy checks to short answers that ask a new hire to explain a process.

Explanations for every answer

Each question includes a short explanation, so a wrong answer becomes a quick review of the material instead of just a lost point.

Built from your own material

Questions come from the files you upload, so the quiz matches your company's processes, tools and policies rather than generic content.

How it works

Upload your onboarding files

Add PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain text notes, or photos of printed pages. Images are read with text recognition.

Choose the question types

Select multiple-choice, true/false or open questions and set how many you want for each section of the onboarding course.

Review and study

Check the questions, edit any that need fixing, then take the quiz in the browser to see where new hires still need help.

A good onboarding quiz tests application, not just recall. Scenario-based multiple-choice questions show whether someone can use a policy or tool, while true/false items work well for safety rules and deadlines. Open questions suit processes that need explaining in the learner's own words.

Use the results to decide what to change. If many new hires miss the same question, the related slide is probably unclear, and the quiz gives you a concrete place to start revising the course.

Frequently asked questions

What should a rise onboarding quiz cover?

Focus on the things a new hire must do correctly in the first weeks, such as core processes, tools, policies and safety rules. Avoid trivia that does not change how someone works.

How many questions should an onboarding quiz have?

Around 5 to 10 questions per module is usually enough to check understanding without making the quiz feel like a test. Keep it short enough that new hires finish it in one sitting.

Can I export my onboarding quiz?

Exports are paid features. Plus includes PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export for learning systems. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start. Students with a school email get 40% off paid plans.
