Utilizing the SIG Template Import Responses Feature

You can import all of your answers from your Excel spreadsheet to the Standardized Information Gathering (SIG) Lite 3.1 assessment questionnaire.

Users can utilize this article to assist them in importing their responses when asked to complete the 2021 SIG assessment.

Users who have previously filled out the 2020 and 2019 SIG Lite and Core questionnaire in an Excel spreadsheet, these steps are still applicable to complete the assessment expediently and effectively.

Important:

Users with older versions of the SIG templates will have their questionnaires partially imported. Only the questions that match the current version will be accepted.
