YCA has developed a test and assessment process that allows the organisation to generate true Return on Investment (ROI). This process allows new tests to be created and scored automatically by the platform. Based on the curriculum or training, the admin or the assessor can configure the assessment questions using different formats such as descriptive, true or false, multiple-choice, etc. The responses can be marked by an assessor/ trainer, or the system will generate an automatic system answer.
