Need an Easy Way to Engage Your Population and Measure Health Literacy?

4 Powerful FitQuiz Benefits

FitQuiz provides four practical advantages for organizations that want to engage employees, measure health knowledge, and improve wellness communication.

Less Expensive

FitQuiz can provide useful information about employee knowledge without requiring the cost or complexity of a complete health risk assessment.

Administrators can also access the necessary quiz-building, scoring, and reporting features within the FitLyfe 360 platform instead of paying for a separate quiz-building application.

Faster

A traditional 50-question health risk assessment may take participants 15 to 30 minutes to complete. FitQuiz allows you to ask a smaller set of targeted questions and review responses faster.

Organizations can create their own questions or use existing health literacy question sets to engage employees around a specific topic.

Simpler

The FitQuiz interface allows administrators to create questions, select answer formats, assign points, and review results without leaving the FitLyfe wellness platform.

This creates a more consistent experience for program administrators and participants while keeping wellness activities connected in one system.

Customizable

Create a quiz about one specific health or nutrition topic or ask broader questions about employee knowledge.

FitQuiz can function as a short assessment, an engagement tool, an educational activity, or a combination of all three.

How FitQuiz Works

The FitQuiz module helps administrators create and distribute a wellness quiz through a series of flexible steps.

Choose a Topic

Select a health and wellness topic that you want to explore, such as exercise, nutrition, sleep, stress, or preventive care.

Then give the quiz a clear and relevant name. For example, you could create a quiz called “How Much Do You Know About the Health Benefits of Sleep?”

Develop Questions

Create questions about the selected health topic and provide the appropriate answer choices.

For example, a sleep quiz could ask participants how many hours they usually sleep each night or whether they follow a consistent sleep schedule.

Select an Answer Format

FitQuiz supports several response formats:

• True or false.
• Multiple choice.
• Yes or no.

Administrators can present answers with radio buttons, checkboxes, or simple yes-or-no selections based on the type of question being asked.

Use Branching Logic

Branching logic allows administrators to ask relevant follow-up questions based on a participant’s previous answer.

For example, after asking whether someone eats red meat, the next question could ask how often.

Score the Quiz

Assign point values to individual questions and determine how many total points participants can earn after completing the quiz.

Administrators can use the score to measure understanding, identify areas that need additional education, or reward participation.

Required or Optional

Require responses when specific information is essential while allowing other questions to remain optional.

This flexibility helps organizations collect important information without making every quiz unnecessarily long.

Add Incentive Rewards

Encourage quiz completion by awarding wellness points or another employee wellness incentive.

The reward can be connected to completion, a qualifying score, or another program requirement established by the administrator.

Connect Quizzes With Videos

Administrators can prompt participants to complete a quiz after watching an educational video.

This provides a simple way to determine whether employees understood the information and award points for completing the activity.

Mobile-Friendly Access

Participants can complete FitQuiz activities from a desktop computer, tablet, smartphone, or the FitLyfe mobile application.

Employees can point and click on a computer or tap and swipe on a mobile device.

Measure Health Literacy

FitQuiz gives organizations a simple way to assess what employees understand about different health topics and identify areas where additional education may be beneficial.

Health information can be difficult to understand when it contains unfamiliar terminology, complicated instructions, lengthy explanations, or unclear next steps.

A short wellness quiz can help an organization determine which subjects employees understand and where communication or educational resources may need improvement.

For additional information about clear health communication, review the CDC health literacy resources.

What Is Health Literacy?

Personal health literacy describes a person’s ability to find, understand, and use health information and services when making health-related decisions.

Organizational health literacy focuses on how effectively organizations help people find, understand, and use that information.

This distinction matters for an employee wellness program. Employees need accessible information, but employers and wellness providers are also responsible for presenting that information clearly.

Employees may receive information about nutrition, physical activity, preventive screenings, benefits, chronic disease management, mental well-being, and healthcare services.

Even accurate information may not produce results when it is difficult to understand or does not clearly explain what action an employee should take.

Improve Health Literacy With FitQuiz

Begin by asking a few focused questions about a health-related topic.

The responses can help you determine what participants already understand and where additional education may be needed.

Administrators can then use those results to adjust wellness communications, develop educational activities, select relevant program content, or create another quiz that reinforces the information.

FitQuiz can also help organizations evaluate whether employees understood a video, article, presentation, coaching session, or wellness campaign.

Instead of assuming the information was understood, administrators can use participant responses to identify possible communication gaps.

Create Clearer Health Content

Improving health literacy also begins with the content and instructions you provide to your population.

• Write shorter sentences and use familiar language.
• Explain medical or technical terms when they are necessary.
• Place the most important information near the beginning.
• Clearly state what action the reader should take next.
• Use headings, lists, and spacing to make information easier to scan.
• Evaluate written materials with tools such as the Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level test.
• Establish appropriate reading-level standards for employee health content.
• Use examples or diagrams when they make complicated information easier to understand.
• Test important communications with members of the intended audience before distributing them widely.

Engage Employees With FitQuiz

FitQuiz combines wellness education, knowledge assessment, points, reporting, and mobile access in one customizable tool.

Organizations can use the results to improve communication, support employee learning, and create a more informed wellness experience.
