Minimize external navigations by embedding forms directly into Trainual content steps. Not only does this make training more interactive and engaging for your learners, but forms can also provide a seamless way to collect information and gather feedback.
👉 Before you start:
Embedding is available under all Trainual plans.
Only content creator permission levels and content access holders will have the ability to complete these steps.
A third-party account to create and embed forms, such as Typeform or Google Forms, will have to be set up and accessible to proceed.
