Completing an assessment

You can complete an assessment on both mobile and desktop.

You can manually add an assessment and complete the new assessment. Assessments are commonly grouped into folders. The folders help you to find the assessment you want to add and complete.

Some assessments are automatically added by Nervecentre as part of a workflow. Also, the outcome of an assessment might be to repeat the assessment at another time. You can complete assessments that Nervecentre has added and repeat assessments.
