Assessments can be used to create personalized content when deployed in the Professional edition of the Knowledge Center. 

 

To enable personalized content, an assessment must be designated as a pre-assessment or post-assessment associated with a parent document in the outline, or linked directly to an outline as an inline assessment. Personalized content is based on associating the questions in an assessment with a document in the outline using the question's Associated Content property.

 

When deploying content in a Knowledge Path, you can specify which assessment to use as a pre-assessment and post-assessment. Pre-assessments and post-assessments have their own features and options that you can set in the Knowledge Center Manager. 

 

In order to designate a pre-assessment and/or post-assessment, assessments must be associated to the parent level document in the outline using the Assessments property for the parent. After the parent document is added as an activity in a Knowledge Path, you choose which of the associated assessments are to be used as a pre-assessment and a post-assessment. 

 

While inline assessments appear in the table of contents for the deployed outline, pre-assessments and post-assessments do not. Instead, they appear as nodes (headings) before the subject activity (for pre-assessments) and after the subject activity (for post-assessments) in the Knowledge Path. 

 

See Design the Assessment in the Understand Personalized Content section in the Questions and Assessments in Player Content section in this chapter.
