This article describes how you can access the Results Dashboard, which reports are available and how to set filtering options for the data.
The Results Dashboard allows you to easily and quickly view how well your groups of candidates have performed. It has flexible filtering options so particular groups of results can be focused on and compared with other groupings.
The Results Dashboard is designed to help you understand the level of your groups of candidates, and how this may change over time.
Where a candidate's individual, formal result would not include performances that do not meet the minimum test requirement for a skill, these are considered in the Results Dashboard to give institutions the best picture of where their students are.
Please note, the screenshots in this article were created with test data and are for illustration purposes only.
