Guroo.Pro module quizzes and Academy's Quiz/Assessment content types can both be used to deliver an assessment or quiz to a learner.

However, they both have some different features and functions and one or the other may suit your course design better, or be a better option for the experience you want to deliver to your leaners.

Here is a handy guide to help you choose the best option for your program/course.
