More question types. More relevance. More confidence in training.

Quizzes in many learning platforms can feel predictable.

Same formats
Same answer types
Same limitations

But real learning isnโ€™t one-dimensional, and your assessments shouldnโ€™t be either.

If youโ€™re running L&D at an SMB, youโ€™re juggling compliance, onboarding, skills, and product knowledgeโ€ฆoften with quiz formats that donโ€™t quite match the way people actually learn.

So, we made them better.๐Ÿ‘‡

Introducing the new way to assess learning in Thirst

With our latest feature enhancement, you can now build quizzes that actually reflect how people think, recall, and apply knowledge at work.

Say hello to three flexible question types – all in one place.

โœ… Single-answer multiple choice

Quick, clean, and perfect when thereโ€™s one clear right answer.

โœ… Multiple-answer multiple choice

No more โ€œselect oneโ€ when the real world isnโ€™t that simple.

Ideal for compliance, security, and real-world decision-making.

โœ… Fill-in-the-blanks

Forget guessing. Learners complete a sentence, define a term, or recall information without prompts.
Great for terminology, product knowledge, policies, or definitions.

And yes:

You can mix all three question types in a single quiz.

Thatโ€™s assessments with range, built directly into Thirst.

What this means for L&D teams at SMBs

In smaller organisations, you need assessment tools that punch above their weight.

This update gives you:

  • More credible evidence of progress
  • Better alignment with real-world knowledge
  • Assessments that leadership will trust
  • The ability to test understanding, not luck

No extra tools.
No messy workarounds.
Just question types that finally make sense for your training.

Now youโ€™ve got them. ๐Ÿ™Œ

What this means for your learners

Learners switch off when quizzes feel like guesswork.
But when questions feel relevant, they stay engaged.

This enhancement gives them:

  • Fairer scoring
    (Multiple correct answers? Great – they can get partial credit.)
  • More meaningful questions
    (Not everything should be multiple choice.)
  • A stronger sense of what they actually know

Better quizzes = more confidence = better performance in the real world.

Where these improved quizzes shine

โญ Compliance
Check understanding properly – not just โ€œdid they click the right box?โ€

โญ Onboarding
Help new hires remember what matters.

โญ Product training
Reinforce terminology, processes, and core concepts.

โญ Skills development
Test depth, not just completion.
