Quiz Completion
If you would like to gain a certificate of completion for the ILR Basic Training Series, you must take each session quiz so that our team can track who has completed all sessions and issue certificates accordingly. If you have multiple individuals in your office participating, you must each take the quiz individually so we can track completion for each individual participant.
There is not a set pass/fail rate for the quiz, regardless of your score your quiz data will be shared with our team so we can determine who participated. At the end of each quiz your score will be displayed, and you will have options to go back and review your answers. This provides a way to check your own understanding of the topics. There is a “Retake Quiz” button available at the end of the quiz. It is not required that you retake the quiz but if you would like to test your knowledge on the topics again you can use this function to take the quiz again.
Quizzes for ALL 5 basic training sessions will be available until May 30. After May 30, the Iowa Land Records team will be reviewing quiz data to determine who will be awarded ILR Basic Training Completion Certificates.
