# How to create a Skill Test?

1. Move your cursor to the main menu and select **Author - Skill Tests**  
     
   **![](https://help.scandlearn.com/hubfs/2022-11-29_15-47-41-gif.gif)**
2. **Select Question banks**  
   We start with creating a question bank because the Skill test doesn't contain any questions; they compile the question banks to make adding them easier to a course.
   
     1. Select **Questions banks** option in the side-bar menu
     2. Download the Template by clicking on the template button and following the instructions in the Template.

     3. The Template gives you three types of questions;
        
        **Choices:** *This is a graded question that offers several answer options, and one or more can be correct.*
        
        **Choice:   ***This is a graded question that provides several answers, but only one of them is correct.*  
          
        **Boolean:   ** *This graded question requires evaluating a statement as correct or incorrect by choosing between true and false.*
        
        Add your questions accordingly and Save them.
     4. Go back to Author - Skill Tests - Question banks and click (+ **Create)** (located in the top right-hand corner as always)
     5. Start by naming your question bank and proceed to Questions on the left side.
