CHRO/HRD asks: What are Empatyzer mini-tests for and why aren't they exams?
TL;DR:
- Mini-tests reinforce short micro-lessons and prompt repeated recall.
- They add gamification and give a clear sense of progress.
- They are not used for assessment or selection — this is a developmental, continuous process.
Empatyzer's mini-tests are brief memory checks linked to micro-lessons, designed to trigger recall, cement habits and raise the likelihood that tips get used on the job. Because they're quick and informal, they aren't treated like exams: they aren't scored for personnel decisions and they don't affect performance ratings. Their main purpose is gamification and to provide an unmistakable signal of progress, which motivates regular review and helps build a habit of using the tool. Frequent retrieval of content improves retention far more than one-off training, and short tests help lock in practical guidance. Test results remain private and are only aggregated at group level, so raw individual scores aren't exposed. It's a continuous process: the lesson base grows with context, and tests let you track individual and team progress without exam pressure. In practice, mini-tests work as reminders, an engagement metric and a nudge to apply skills regularly — not as a way to evaluate or rank employees.
Mini-tests are a reinforcement and motivational tool, not an exam or selection method; they aim to build habit, show progress and support ongoing development.
