Do EMS agencies upload their own PDF to ProtoQuiz?

No. The agency product is not a self-serve upload tool. Your organization sends us your protocol document and we build the question bank from it as a one-time build for your agency. Individual crew members never upload their own documents, so there is one protocol set and one question bank rather than many unreviewed ones.

How does ProtoQuiz make sure agency questions are accurate?

The question bank is built and verified on our side against your protocol document before it is delivered, rather than generated on demand from a file your crews uploaded. Every question carries a page citation back to your own document, so your training officer can check any question against the source page.

Are ProtoQuiz agency questions cited to our protocol?

Yes. Every question points to the page in your agency's own protocol document where the answer lives, not to a national standard or another agency's protocol. If a question cannot be traced to a page in your document, it does not belong in your bank.

Does ProtoQuiz scope questions to certification level?

Yes. Questions are scoped by certification level using your agency's own scope of practice chart, so an EMT is not drilled on paramedic-scope drugs and doses. Agencies with their own tier structure are built to that structure rather than a generic split.

How much training time does ProtoQuiz require from providers?

The product is built around one short quiz per shift that a provider can complete between calls on their phone. Every attempt and score is recorded by name and date, producing documented, exportable proof of training on the current protocol set.

How long does it take to set up ProtoQuiz for an agency?

You are live 7 days after we receive your protocol. Agencies get their own subdomain, accessed by link in any browser with no app install required.

ProtoQuiz for Agencies, Rebuilt: One Quiz per Shift

ProtoQuiz for Agencies has a new look and a new structure. Short version: an agency sends us its protocol, we build the question bank from it, and crews get one short quiz per shift on the protocols they actually run. Nobody on the crew uploads anything.

Your Crews Are Not Uploading a PDF

The consumer version of ProtoQuiz lets an individual medic drop in a PDF and get a study set. That is a personal study tool, and it is not what agencies get. Your organization sends us your protocol, and we build your bank from it on our side, once. One protocol set, one tenant, one bank, built from the document your agency approved.

Built and Checked Before Delivery

The bank is verified against your protocol before it is delivered. Doses, thresholds and criteria are checked against the page they came from, and anything ambiguous or contradictory in the source is flagged for a human instead of guessed at.

A written clinical standard governs the build, with one test: a question earns its place only if getting it wrong on a call would change patient care. Doses, contraindications, decision points. Not phone numbers.

Every Question Points Back to the Page

Every question cites the page in your own protocol where the answer lives - not a national standard, not another agency's document. Your training officer can verify any question in seconds, and your providers settle disagreements by opening the protocol. A question that cannot be traced to a page in your document does not belong in your bank.

Scoped to Each Provider

Questions are scoped by certification level using your agency's own scope of practice chart, and when someone moves up a level, their content moves with them. If your agency has its own tier structure, we build to it.

One Quiz per Shift

Protocol training only works if people do it, so the product is built around one quiz per shift: a short set a provider can do between calls, on their phone. Months of steady exposure instead of one forgettable annual refresher.

That steady rhythm also produces the record: every attempt and score, dated and attributed by name. When someone asks you to prove your people trained on the current protocol set, that is the answer.

What Training Officers Get

A dashboard that names names - who is weak, on what, by provider.
Assignments - pick a topic, set a minimum score and a due date, send it.
One-click export - a PDF report for your medical director, your chief, or a state audit.
Content that follows your protocol - when your protocols change, your bank changes with them.
Your own subdomain - youragency.protoquiz.com, opened by link in any browser. No app store install.

What I Won't Overstate

Your local protocol always wins. ProtoQuiz is a training tool, not medical direction. We do not grant CE; we log training time for your CE record, and your agency's CE program or medical director grants the CE. If our content and your medical direction disagree, your medical direction is right, and I want to hear about it.

Disagree with a question? Tell us. Every agency has a direct line, and corrections get fixed in your bank, not filed away.

See It On Your Own Protocol

The demo is live, and there is no upload box in it. Send us your protocol and we will show you your own content, scoped to your own certification levels, before you commit to anything.
