Quick answer

Week-one training lands unevenly and nobody knows where — one attendance record plus a short scored quiz on policies, tools and process, and the 'least clear point' answers say exactly what to re-teach next batch.

About this template

Week one floods new hires with policies, tools and names. This quiz checks what actually stuck — with a sign-in record for each session — so managers see who can start real work and who needs a quick second pass on one or two topics, before small gaps turn into on-the-job mistakes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this quiz pass or fail people?
It should not — treat scores as a readiness signal. A low item score means 'offer a second pass on this topic', not a mark against the new hire.
How is it different from the Employee Handbook Quiz?
The handbook quiz checks policy knowledge from the written handbook. This one covers everything week one covered — tools, people, processes — and also records attendance.
Who sees the results?
The onboarding lead and the new hire's manager. The itemized report shows exactly which topics to revisit.
Is there a record of attendance?
Yes — the sign-in fields capture who attended which session, kept alongside the quiz results.
Can it be reused for each new cohort?
Yes — copy per session, update the covered topics list, and send. The structure carries over.
Is it free to use?
Yes. Copy it into your FormLM workspace and match the questions to your week-one content.
