✨ New feature alert
This feature is available from Thursday 12 November 2026.
Overview
A new Initial Assessment tab on a learner's Inclusion record shows their Cognassist assessment results, so you can see them alongside barriers, support needs and support plans without leaving the Inclusion module. The tab is read-only — assessments are still carried out and managed in Cognassist.
User Roles
This feature can be used by:
- Centre Manager (by default)
Access is controlled by a new permission, so any role can be given access (see "Who can see it").
Steps to View the Results
- Open the learner's record in the Inclusion module.
- Select the Initial Assessment tab.
- View the results under Cognassist Assessment Results.
What the Tab Shows
The latest Cognassist assessment results, as a table:
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Domain | The area the assessment looked at — for example Literacy, Numeracy or Verbal Memory. |
| Domain result | Whether a need was found in that domain: Identified or Not Identified. |
- The domains come from Cognassist, so the tab shows whichever domains the learner's assessment covered.
- The results match what Cognassist shows in Eportfolio.
When the Tab Appears
The tab only appears when all of these are true:
- Your Centre uses the Cognassist integration.
- The learner has completed a Cognassist assessment (while it's in progress or not started, the tab doesn't show).
- You have permission to see it.
If any of these isn't true, the tab doesn't appear. If the results can't be loaded at the time, the tab shows a message saying so — try again later.
Who Can See It
A new Initial Assessment permission on Settings > Permissions controls who can see the tab.
- By default, only Centre Managers can see it.
- You can give any role access, and change access for individual users.
- The permission can be set to No Access or Read.
Terminology
The terminology used in this article may differ depending on your Centre or Cognassist configuration.
