Questionmark Company Overview

Vision Statement
The cornerstone of successful education, training and certification is the effective use of assessments. The 21st century offers a real opportunity to use technology to make assessments more widely available and more successful for those involved in the process. In a world where you cannot know everything, assessments will be used to guide people to powerful learning experiences, reduce learning curves, confirm skills, knowledge and attitudes, and motivate by providing a sense of achievement. Questionmark aims to be the world's leading organisation in developing, supplying and supporting an assessment platform, software, systems and services for computerising education and training related assessments. Questionmark strives to bring inspirational meaning to assessment experiences by getting results.


Mission Statement
Questionmark’s mission is to provide the highest quality testing and assessment software and support services to enable individuals and organisations reach their goals.

Questionmark™ Perception™

Questionmark™ Perception™ is an assessment management system enables learning and education professionals to create, securely administer and report on surveys, quizzes, tests and exams.


Perception enables multiple authors to work together in a distributed learning environment with seamless connections to existing systems and infrastructure. Wizard-based authoring enables creation of 22 different types of questions ranging from commonly used question types such as multiple choice, Likert scale, fill-in-the-blank and essay – to innovative question types such as drag-and-drop, spoken response, and interactive questions that integrate Adobe Flash and Adobe Captivate simulations. Questions can be stored by topic or learning objective and organised in surveys, quizzes, tests or exams.

Perception delivers assessments online to standard or secure web browsers and to PDAs. Perception also enables printing and scanning of assessments, centralising management of both online and paper-delivered tests. Assessment delivery options allow questions and choices to be shuffled, and for participants to receive helpful feedback at item, topic, or assessment level. Answers are scored and saved to a database for analysis and reporting. Perception’s reporting system includes 12 standard reports that enable administrators to analyse and communicate results. Reports include item and test analysis, question statistics, gap analysis, coaching, survey analysis and many more.
Perception applications include pre- and post-course tests, practice quizzes, course evaluations and certification exams. Options include a secure browser, proctoring security and test center management. The software can be licensed or used as a hosted solution.
