Build a clear and effective skills assessment
Create a skills assessment for individuals or teams to measure strengths, identify skill gaps, and track progress over time. Use structured scoring, benchmarks, and detailed reports to give respondents a clear view of their abilities and areas for improvement.
Build your skills assessment brilliantly
From soft skills to strengths and weaknesses. Explore some of the features our customers love most for their skills assessments.
Make your assessment personal
From automatically filled fields to conditional questions and more, you can customize your assessment to be a highly personalized experience for every respondent.
Use various answer formats
Format answers in the way that makes the most sense for the question and scoring. You can also choose from various preconfigured answers to make assessment creation fast.
Create detailed scoring
Scoring is the foundation of creating feedback. To help you create the feedback you want, we enable you to create detailed scoring combinations that follow the assessment hierarchy or connect questions or answers from across the assessment.
Set benchmarks
Brilliant Assessments automatically calculates benchmarks for all previous responses and unlimited peer groups. Benchmarks can be an average or any percentile you specify and can be uploaded to reflect historical data or industry standards.
Bring your own branding
White labeling lets you fully personalize your assessments, enabling you to add your logo to login screens, assessment pages, and reports, as well as customize colors, fonts, domains, and more. This level of customization gives you complete control over the look, feel, and overall impression of your assessments — and it's included with every subscription at no additional cost.
Create a feedback experience
Deliver personalized insights based on a respondent's specific answers, scores, bands of scores, and groups of connected scores. Feedback can be delivered as a PDF Report, an Iteration Report (showing change over time), and a dynamic results dashboard.
Results pages
Deliver results upon completion with a dynamic and interactive results page. This uses the Merge Manager to build feedback, and because it’s web-based, it can include videos and drill-down elements on charts.
PDF reports
Create a beautiful and detailed PDF feedback report using one of our sample templates or your own. Merge report text and build charts with our Word Add-In, which enables you to build feedback easily through a picklist linked to your assessment.
Iteration reports
Measuring progress over time is a great way to influence change. In Brilliant Assessments, we call reassessment iterations. Iterations can be included in feedback as a PDF or as part of the results page.
Bring feedback to life with charts and visuals
See feedback come to life with the raft of chart styles available in Brilliant Assessments - from classic line and bar charts to more detailed heat maps and scatterplots.
Most charts are made with automatically calculated scores and ratings on multiple levels, from the overall assessment to individual questions, giving you a detailed view of each result - but if you need something a little more nuanced, calculations are available to manage this.

Automate assessment emails
Use automated emails to remind or prompt your respondents to complete their skills assessment either a number of days before a deadline or a number of days after starting their response.
Invitations
Welcome individual respondents to their assessment and provide a unique link for them to get started. This will also enable you to track their progress.
Reminders
Encourage partial completions to pick up where they left off, either a set number of days after starting or a number of days before the completion deadline.
Completion
Congratulate respondents for completing their assessment and provide a link to the results page, while also attaching the PDF report (if applicable)
Follow up
Follow up with an iteration reminder, or if feedback is gated, encourage respondents to purchase their full report.
Create cohorts to measure the skills of a group
It’s easy to connect responses to cohorts retrospectively or run a skills assessment as a group assessment to compare results at a collective level.
Average the results and create segments based on an unlimited variety of criteria. You can create cohort feedback as a PDF Report and a Results page.
