Knowledge Check

Every week, Knowledge Check sends a 10-question quiz to your apprentices automatically. Questions come from a built-in trade question bank, get picked by the Field Supervisor, or both. Apprentices get a link by text or email and answer from their phone. When they're done, the Field Supervisor sees their score and exactly which questions they got wrong.

The promise

The Field Supervisor stops guessing where each apprentice is struggling. A quiz goes out every week without anyone building it, and the results show not just the score but exactly which questions tripped them up.

How it works

The path from input to value.

  1. 01

    Questions are selected for the week

    Each week, 10 questions are pulled from the trade-relevant question bank automatically, selected by the Field Supervisor from the bank, or a combination of both — depending on how the company has configured it.

  2. 02

    The quiz is delivered to apprentices

    Each assigned apprentice receives their quiz via SMS or email on the configured send day. The quiz opens as a link and is completed from any device — no app download required.

  3. 03

    Apprentices complete the quiz on their own time

    The apprentice works through the 10 questions at their own pace within the configured completion window. Answers are submitted when they're done and write back to their record automatically.

  4. 04

    Results land on the Field Supervisor's dashboard

    When an apprentice submits, the Field Supervisor sees the score and a question-by-question breakdown — which questions were answered correctly, which were missed, and what the correct answer was. Every apprentice's results are visible in one place.

  5. 05

    Trends are visible over time

    As quizzes accumulate, the Field Supervisor can see how each apprentice is progressing week over week — where scores are improving and where the same questions keep getting missed.

The day before. The day after.

Same moments. Lived differently.

  • 8:00 AM

    Before

    Field Supervisor plans to put together a knowledge check for the apprentices today. The morning gets busy. It gets pushed to tomorrow.

    After

    Quiz goes out automatically to every apprentice by text or email. Field Supervisor didn't touch it.

  • 10:00 AM

    Before

    An apprentice makes a mistake in the field that a basic question would have caught. Field Supervisor has no way to know where the gaps are.

    After

    Three of four apprentices have already submitted. Field Supervisor opens the dashboard and sees question-by-question results for each one.

  • 1:00 PM

    Before

    Field Supervisor tries to recall which apprentices have been struggling. Goes on gut feel. Coaching is broad and hard to make stick.

    After

    Coaching conversation with an apprentice is grounded in this morning's results. Two specific questions missed two weeks in a row — that's where the session starts.

  • 4:00 PM

    Before

    No quiz went out this week. No data on where any apprentice stands. Same story as last week.

    After

    Every apprentice's quiz logged and scored. Field Supervisor closes the day knowing exactly where each one stands.

What it doesn’t do

The edges we drew on purpose.

A product that tries to do everything ends up doing nothing well. Here’s what we left out, and why we don’t feel bad about it.

  • ×Does not generate custom questions outside of the configured question bank.
  • ×Does not grade or evaluate apprentices beyond quiz performance.
  • ×Does not send quiz results directly to the apprentice.
  • ×Does not replace formal apprenticeship assessments or certification requirements.
