Let’s be honest:

Quizzes have their place.

But when it comes to measuring real understanding? They often fall short.

That’s why we built Assessments – a smarter, more flexible way to evaluate what your people actually know, understand, and can do.

Not another box-ticking exercise

This isn’t about catching people out or chasing correct answers.

It’s about reflection. Real-world application. Constructive feedback.

With Assessments, you can set challenges that help learners show competence and confidence in the areas that matter most to your organisation – whether that’s compliance, onboarding, skill development, or something else entirely.

How it works

As an admin, you can create open-ended tasks or scenario-based questions that learners respond to in the way that makes the most sense:

  • Typed responses
  • Video uploads
  • Supporting files like PDFs or Word docs

It’s flexible by design, because not everything can (or should) be answered with A, B, C, or D.

Why this matters

Traditional assessments are great for quick checks.

But when it comes to evaluating complex skills? They can miss the mark.

Assessments in Thirst offer a more accurate, meaningful way to understand how your people think, apply, and grow.

Every submission is automatically sent to the learner’s manager, opening the door for personal feedback, dialogue, and clearer visibility on strengths and areas for improvement.

Smarter learning, better outcomes

Assessments help you:

  • Dig deeper than surface-level knowledge
  • Give learners space to reflect and respond
  • Capture feedback that actually helps them improve
  • Get richer insights into individual and team performance

This isn’t just a new feature. It’s a new way to assess progress and a better way to build capability across your organisation.
