Share Multiple Assessments Simultaneously

In DnA, users whom have been given access may share multiple assessments with other staff members simultaneously. You may share any assessment you create. You may also share any assessment that was shared with you if its author specifically indicated that you have permission to share it.

When you create an assessment it is (by default) not shared with anyone else. That means no one else can see (under his or her own login in DnA) that the assessment exists until you share it with others.

Where to Start

1. Click Assessments.
