It is not realistic to get 100% compliance, however, with a concerted effort, you can considerably improve compliance from your customers.

Inexpensive e-Quizzing

    the external web page for SurveyMonkey. It's used primarily for surveys / polling. However, it can also be used to create a quiz. Has a free-use option. Online interface.

    the external web page for Quiz Builder 2. It's inexpensive but powerful software that creates flash-based quizzes. Download software to your PC (not Mac).

    the external web page for Class Marker. It's an inexpensive online quizzing site, which I have used for some online PBET training. Allows for multiple-choice, true-false, fill in blank, matching, and essay type questions.
