Per-learner Assessment data — passes, fails, attempt counts, scores. Use for compliance evidence and to identify learners who need follow-up.
The Assessment Status Report summarizes Assessment outcomes per learner — who passed, who failed, how many attempts, current status. Reach for it for compliance evidence, for identifying learners who failed and need outreach, or for understanding which Assessments are filtering out the most learners.
For the strategic frame on Assessment design, see Assessments: Designing Knowledge Checks That Are Useful. For the strategic frame on reporting, see Reporting: Which Report Should I Use?.
Important blind spot: Learners who have been assigned an Assessment but haven't yet opened it don't appear on this report. To find never-started Assessments, cross-reference with Assignment Summary.
Date range is not applicable to this report — it shows current-state Assessment outcomes.
When to Use This Report
Compliance verification. Per-learner pass/fail record with timestamps — the structure most compliance audits need.
Identifying learners who failed. Filter for "Failed" status to surface learners who need additional support, retake assignments, or escalation.
Assessment quality investigation. If most learners are failing or requiring multiple attempts on a specific Assessment, the Assessment itself may need redesign (unclear questions, mismatched difficulty, missing prerequisite content).
Column Reference
Assessment ID — Internal Continu ID, appears in the Assessment URL.
Assessment Title — Assessment name.
Assessment Status — Passed or Failed. Reflects the most recent attempt outcome based on Assessment settings (pass mark).
Plus attempt-level columns — attempt count, score, completion date.
Plus standard learner profile columns — name, email, role, location, department, manager, hire date.
For the full learner column reference, see The User Management Report.
How to Use This Report Effectively
Pair with Assignment Summary to catch never-started Assessments. This report excludes learners who haven't opened the Assessment. Assignment Summary surfaces them.
Filter by Failed status for follow-up. Failed learners are the highest-priority follow-up audience. Surface them in a separate view to drive action.
Look at attempt-count distribution for Assessment design signals. If most passing learners pass on the first attempt and most failing learners give up after one attempt, the Assessment is doing its job. If most learners need 3+ attempts to pass, the Assessment may need redesign.
Configuration Pitfalls
Reading the Report as Total Coverage. Learners who never opened the Assessment don't appear. If your goal is "is the audience being reached," cross-reference with Assignment Summary.
Forgetting Date Range Doesn't Apply. Filter by Assessment, learner, or status instead.
Treating Pass/Fail as the Only Signal. Pass on first attempt vs pass on third attempt is a meaningful difference. Look at attempt counts for the deeper picture.
Manually Completing Assessments Skewing Reports. Admins can manually complete Assessments via override. These show on the report but reflect admin action rather than learner performance. See Managing And Manually Completing Assignments for the override mechanics.
Comparing Across Different Pass Marks. Two Assessments with different pass marks (70% vs 90%) have non-comparable pass rates. Filter to one Assessment for clean analysis.
Where This Fits
