The decision they practise
In “Tom tells HR”, a chat, learners practise what to say and do when the other person pushes back. The wrong options are things a well-meaning person might genuinely say, and the feedback explains why each one is tempting. Short animations show “Do you need to declare it?”; and “Declare now, or keep it quiet?”.
How you know they finished
The 11-question quiz mixes multiple choice and matching questions and returns to the opening story.
