Want to test your team’s customer service knowledge or create an engaging training assessment? The Customer Service Trivia Challenge Quiz Template from WPForms gives you a ready-to-use graded quiz that evaluates understanding of essential customer service principles and best practices.
What Makes This Quiz Work
This is a Graded Quiz with 8 multiple-choice questions covering core customer service skills. Each question has one correct answer. WPForms automatically scores responses and shows participants how well they did, either as a raw score, percentage, or letter grade based on the grading scale you configure.

8 Questions Testing Customer Service Knowledge
The quiz covers fundamental customer service competencies that every support team member should know. Questions address handling upset customers, using customer-friendly language, demonstrating empathy, managing unknown answers, practicing active listening, understanding escalation processes, summarizing next steps, and owning mistakes.
Each question presents four answer choices with one clearly correct option based on customer service best practices. For example, when asked about the best first step with an upset customer, the correct answer is “Listen actively and acknowledge their feelings” rather than immediately offering discounts or transferring the call.
How to Use This Quiz
- For Training Programs: Use this as a knowledge check at the end of customer service training. Set a passing score like 75% and require team members to achieve it before certification.
- For Hiring Assessments: Include this in your application process to evaluate candidates’ baseline customer service knowledge before interviews.
- For Team Refreshers: Deploy this quarterly as a quick skills check to identify knowledge gaps and determine where additional training might help.
- For Onboarding: Give new hires this quiz during their first week to establish a baseline, then again after training to measure improvement.
Customize the Grading and Feedback
WPForms lets you define your own grading scale. Set up letter grades like A, B, C, D, and F with percentage ranges that make sense for your standards. Maybe 90-100% is an A and anything below 70% is failing. You decide.
You can also choose whether to show correct answers immediately after each question or wait until the end. Immediate feedback works well for training scenarios where learning happens in real-time. Delayed feedback works better for formal assessments.
For each correct and incorrect answer, you can customize the messages participants see. Add encouraging feedback for right answers. For wrong answers, explain why the correct option is better or link to relevant training materials.
Adapt It to Your Needs
This template is ready to use as-is, but you can modify it however you want. Change questions to focus on your specific industry or company policies. Add more questions about product knowledge or technical troubleshooting. Remove questions that don’t apply to your team.
You can adjust the difficulty level too. Make it easier for entry-level positions or harder for senior support roles. Include scenario-based questions that require more critical thinking. Add fields for open-ended responses alongside the multiple-choice questions.
Brand the quiz with your company colors and logo. Customize the confirmation message to include next steps, like scheduling follow-up training or accessing additional resources based on their score.
