Instructor created questions can be added in mass with question imports. If the instructor has more than 50 questions to be added to our system, they can fill out our Import Template in Excel, and we will add them to the instructor's account.
The Excel file for import can be found on our site here.
When you open the file, the first page will be directions on filling it out and an explanation for each column. Certain things are required for our Development Team to be able to add the questions. Once the file has been completed, it gets submitted to our support team (support@platinumed.com). From there, our Support Team will review the file for any missing items and then submit it to the development team for import.
