# Education Q&A (Quiz, Question, and Answer) structured data

## **📌 What is Education Q&A Structured Data?**

It helps Google understand **educational question-answer content** (like exams, quizzes, interview questions) so they can appear in Search as **rich results** with:

- The **question**
- **Multiple choice answers** (or single correct answer)
- **Correct answer highlighted**

Example: *When someone searches “What is SEO?” your structured data can show the question and answer options directly in Search results.*

## **📍 Where It Works**

- **Mobile & Desktop**
- **English only** (for now)
- Works for **official practice questions, tests, exam prep** (not general trivia)

## **✅ Requirements**

- The Q&A must be **educational** (exam prep, certification, academic)
- Each question must have:

  - Question text
  - 1 or more answers (choices)
  - **At least one correct answer** clearly marked
- Must match **visible content** on page (no hidden answers)

## **🛠 Required Schema Types & Properties**

### **Main Entity (Education Q&A Page)**

### **Question**

- @type: **Question**
