1. When will Cornerstone be unavailable for taking quizzes and tests? Cornerstone tests and assessments will be unavailable from the outage start date through the outage end date listed above. Cornerstone Learning will be available for all other needs such as roster management, training registration, transcript review, reporting, etc., but online courses that contain Questionmark assessments as part of their content can't be completed during the upgrade window.
2. Why will quizzes and tests be unavailable? Many online courses in Cornerstone with assessments in them are developed in the Questionmark software, which is being upgraded to the latest version to meet security needs.
3. As a learner, how can I prepare for the outage? To prepare for the outage, please plan to complete curriculums and courses with Cornerstone assessments prior to the outage start date or after outage end date.

6. I am an instructor for an instructor-led course whose class happens during the outage. What should I do? If you are an instructor for an instructor-led course that uses Questionmark assessments and is scheduled to occur during the outage, you will want to make appropriate downtime assessments for the class with plans to update completion when the system returns.
7. What will happen if I try to access an assessment during the outage? If you try to access an assessment during the outage, you will receive an error message.
8. When is the content freeze for assessments? For those creating content, or requesting content updates, be aware that starting on the content freeze date no Cornerstone assessments will be able to be created or updated until the system returns.
