This article explains how to enable candidates to report feedback on questions during their exam.

Available since 7 March 2023

As part of continuous improvement, some organisations enable candidates to report feedback on question items during their exams. Cirrus provides Feedback Administration to manage this from within the platform.

Reporting feedback during an exam

When enabled for an assessment, a Report Feedback link is available to the candidate during the exam.

The candidate selects a Type of feedback:

  • Unsolvable question
  • Spelling or typo
  • Feedback/hint is incorrect
  • Display problem

Together with the Title (a concise summary) and the full Feedback comment, this enables your organisation to process feedback efficiently.

Candidates can report feedback

If your administrator has granted your role the "Edit report feedback option" permission, you can toggle Candidates can report feedback under Tools in the assessment options. Without this permission, the option is disabled and greyed out.
