Create more Cisco CCST certifications
Hi,
I'd like to suggest that Cisco create additional CCST certifications based on some of your other course offerings. For example, for IT Essentials, you could create "CCST: Device Configuration and Troubleshooting". For Linux, you could create "CCST: Linux Fundamentals".
Thank you for your consideration.

Allow Instructor to Check or Un-Check the Enable Additional Attempts Check Box
Please change the check box so that it is NOT disabled so that instructors can CHOOSE whether or not to require instructor to enable additional attempts on assessments. Apparently in this release of the curriculum (Intro to Networks v7.x) this optional has changed for the Practice Final Exam. I do not know why.

I need to be able to choose MULITPLE questions out of a question bank, not just ONE!
Moodle has this capability, When I get to the question bank to add questions to a quiz, there is even a button that says 'Add all selected items", but there is no way to select multiple items!

Thank you for the idea. We have a solution for you. We have provided restrictions to topics that will allow you to add this type of restriction. You may have to create topics and move activities from one topic to another in your class to get this to work best for you.

In Intro to IoT the ability to schedule and quizzes and Final exam and the options.
Bring back the ability in Intro to Iot to schedule and choose options for taking quizzes and the final exam.
At this point I am forced to hide it until the time for the student to take it. I also have no control of how many times the student can take the exam.
To hide the exam, This can be done with the steps below:
Launch the Introduction to IoT course
Click the gear icon at the top right of the page and click "Turn editing on"
Scroll down to "End of Course Assessment"

We have added the ability to add restrictions to Topics. Once you are logged into the course and have turned on editing, go to Edit next to a Topic and select Edit Topic instead of Hide Topic. You will now see a “Restrict Access” section.
Please note: The support desk is working to update the FAQ to include this information.

Be truthfull, stop telling frustrating lies.
If you deactivate everything for everyone, you cannot reactivate it again. I can understand that it takes some time, and that it is not done in real time, but then don't say that assessments are deactivated when in reality they are NOT. Put a timer, send a mail, but let instructors know WHEN they can reactivate an assessment after deactivating.

Thank you for posting to Share Idea. We have implemented a new feature to allow assessments to be activated for someone in more than one course. If you activate an assessment for a student and than deactivate it, the exam will be deactivated in that particular course. If the student is enrolled in two courses teaching the same curriculum, conflicting activations will no longer be an issue.

Add QTI file import option to New Experience
We created a fairly large quiz bank to replace the exams in CCNA to preclude cheating. The new experience CCNA v6 does not have the option to import QTI files. The legacy does. Can we get that added to the new experience.

Thank you for the suggestion. Individuals can now export their question banks from the Legacy Course Experience and import into the New Course Experience. After creating your course in New Experience, click on the Gear Icon and select “More”. You will be taken to a new page. Towards the bottom of the page you will see a “Question Banks” area and an “Import” link.

Create a test exam in each CCNA course for environment checking
Create a test exam in each course that uses Assessment Server delivered exams that can be assigned to students just like a regular exam to ensure they can successfully open and take exams before the first "real" exam for the course is delivered.
We used to use the "pre-test" exams in the old CCNA courses for this purpose but they no longer exist. We regularly get complaints from students during our first testing window in a course that they have errors/issues opening and taking an exam. We would like to have a simple exam (just one example of each question…

Gracias por su sugerencia. En este momento, hemos implementado una firma de Cisco para los estudiantes en lugar de listar un instructor. Esto ayudará al estudiante a obtener una firma. Estamos investigando la posibilidad de agregar una firma digital para los instructores, pero no sabemos cuándo se agregará en este momento.

CCNAv7: The Module Quiz 10.6.2 within Module 10 of CCNA2 course has 15 questions, but in reality, it has only one unique question. That is, in this module quiz, the same question repeated 15 times.

get the certificate for single student?
In the previous version I was able to generate the certificate just for single student. Is it still possible or I have to "get all certificates"?

Instructors can request a certificate for a single student. In the Course Details page there is a Star icon next to the student’s name. Click the star and if needed select the instructor’s name to appear on the certificate.
