How do I use a live quiz in a training workshop?

Use a live quiz in a training workshop as a short check after each module, not one long test at the end. In QG Playground, upload your slides or notes and Granny, the built-in AI, drafts questions with answers; you review and save. At the start, run a two-minute icebreaker poll or a warm-up quiz to see what the room already knows. After each module, go live with three questions: participants join at qgplay.live on their phones with a room code, answer against a timer, and see the correct answer on the big screen, so you can clear up confusion before moving on. People in the room and people on Zoom, Teams or Google Meet join the same code, so hybrid sessions work too. Close with a final round and a podium. Afterwards, the report shows which questions most people missed, and Pro Plus adds before-and-after skill comparison and automatic certificates.

What is a knowledge check in training?

A knowledge check is a short, low-stakes set of questions during a training session that shows whether people understood what was just taught. It is not a test: scores don't count, and the point is the correct answer on the screen and the discussion it starts. Three questions after each module is enough.

In the room, on a call, or both

Project the presenter view in the room, and share the same window on the call, so remote people see what the room sees. Everyone joins the same code from their own device: a phone in the room, a phone or a second browser tab at home. Nobody needs a separate link, and the results land in one report.

Late joiners play from the next question, so you never wait for the last person. If you like to walk the room while you train, the phone remote moves through the questions from your phone (Pro Plus). For short sessions on a call, see a five-minute quiz for team meetings.

Turn your training slides into questions

Upload your PowerPoint, PDF or Word file and Granny drafts questions with answers, explanations and skill tags, ready for you to review. A fact check marks any answer it can't confirm as “Not verified”, so you know which ones to look at first. Questions can be in English, Hindi or other languages.

You stay the editor: change a word, swap an option or delete a question before you save. See make a quiz from your slides.

After the session

Every quiz has a report with per-question results, and you can export it. Save the quiz and re-run it for the next cohort, so every batch gets the same checks.

Pro Plus adds player details (name, email, ID), a before-and-after comparison per skill, certificates sent automatically when the quiz ends, and your client's logo on every screen. To show L&D that training worked, pair the session with a pre and post training assessment.

Questions people ask

Can't find it? The help centre has step-by-step answers.

How many questions should a training quiz have?
Three per module is enough for a knowledge check. Keep the final round to five to ten questions, so the whole quiz takes less than ten minutes of the session.
Can I make the quiz from my training slides?
Yes. Upload a PowerPoint, PDF or Word file and Granny drafts questions with answers and explanations for you to review. The Free plan allows one 20 MB document per quiz.
Does it work for hybrid and virtual training?
Yes. Share the presenter view on Zoom, Teams or Google Meet, and project it in the room. Everyone joins the same room code from their own phone or laptop.
Do participants need to sign up?
No. They join at qgplay.live with the room code and a nickname. If you need names, emails or employee IDs, turn on player details on Pro Plus.
Can I compare scores before and after the training?
Yes. Run the same questions at the start and the end. Every plan shows each session's results, and Pro Plus shows the improvement per skill in one report.
Can participants get certificates?
Yes, on Pro Plus. Certificates are sent as PDFs when the quiz ends, in your own design.
How many people can join?
Up to 20 per session on Free, 100 on Pro and 500 on Pro Plus. An event pass covers a single bigger day.
