This new feature is available across all subscription levels.

With KnowBe4 Assessments you can:

Provide a more custom training program to your users based on their proficiency levels, including the ability for users to “test out” of training they don’t need.
Gain greater insight on your baseline security posture in terms of training and overall awareness with recommended actions to improve.
Track measurable metrics to show improvement over time - both in knowledge and sentiment when it comes to security awareness.
Automatically enroll high-risk users and deliver targeted training to those users via the KnowBe4 Smart Groups feature.
