Assessment templates

An assessment template is a set of questions designed to elicit information during an assessment. An assessment is always conducted using an assessment template. When conducting an assessment, you can provide information via the questions added to the template.

A template can serve as an approved assessment from which to conduct an assessment, or a starting point from which to design customized templates. You can publish your custom templates to make them available for use throughout your organization.
