This Storyline 360 course dashboard gives your learner a central slide with all the critical course information. This template uses states, layers, variables, and more to create fun interactivity that allows you to track your course completion. Download the fonts (Bison Bold and Abel) to get this exact look-and-feel!
This is an awesome idea, Nicole! I'm going to start using it for the eLearning modules I'm building for my company. A one-stop-shop for all key information. Thanks!
Can I use this with storyline 3? It will not download!!! Do you use a dial in the middle and change the states after each completed session? I just want to use the correct dial rather than drawing shapes for each state. Please help if you can. Thank you.
Hi Janice! This file does open up in the latest version of Storyline 3. If it's not working for you, you may need to update to the latest version of Storyline 3 (https://articulate.com/p/downloads).
If that still does not work, please submit a support case here: https://articulate.com/support/contact/
Thanks!
Thanks so much, I did start to create something. I have the states working for the central circle but when a main menu button is pressed on another slide, what would the trigger do besides going to the main menu slide on the story? I am trying to figure out the changing state once the shape (button ) is selected... it would be easier to use yours :)
Hi Janice! It is done using a mix of variables, including a number variable and a TrueFalse variable for each slide. There are also a mix of states and triggers used.
Yes, I just started using variables on the circle on the main menu. When I have figured it out I will share in Articulate Storyline 3. That's if I can't open your gift to the world :) So appreciated.
Wow Nicole! Once again you give us an amazing template. I love the design of it and the fact that a user can see his progress. It help separate the content and not make it overwhelming for the user.
Thank you.
Hi Nicole,
I am a brand new user of Storyline and I love this design. I have used your template for one course already!
However, I have run into trouble with my second one and I can't see where I am making the error. Only one of my lessons is counting towards completion and I have quadruple checked the triggers to Add 1.00 to AmountComplete and Set Lessonxvisited.
I am finding the 'true' and 'false' commands counter-intuitive. Do you have tips on where I could be going wrong?
Hi Catriona! So glad you like this template - but sorry to hear you've run into a bit of a snag here! Would you mind posting your question here in the Building Better Courses forum: https://community.articulate.com/forums/building-better-courses
If you post your question there, along with a link to your .story file so we can take a closer look ? Even if you just include the 2 slides in question, it would help. It's hard to know what's going on without looking at your file.
In terms of working with variables, I know it can be a bit tricky for newbies. Just keep using them and practicing and you'll get better with time!

Hi Catriona, I seem to be having a similar issue. When you posted the course on the link mentioned, did you get it sorted? Could you possibly indicate where I can find your post? Thanks
Not sure where the original post is but my problem was the order for my triggers. The trigger for jumping to a slide was before the trigger to change state to visited so the state could never change. I ended up deleting the triggers and starting again in order to make sure I had them right. It was a bit of an ordeal at the time but an excellent learning experience!
I love this template. I have a course that has 15 modules and I would love to use a layout like this. Do you have any suggestions for managing a list that size without overwhelming the layout and ease of use for your dashboard? Thank you in advance for your time.
Hey there DL!
Thanks so much for your comment and for posting your question here. That's a great question! I think you should post here in the Building Better courses forums and get input from other community members on this: https://community.articulate.com/forums/building-better-courses
You might get some great ideas and suggestions for how to not make it overwhelming given you have 15 modules. Hope this helps :)
Thank you so much! I posted my question to the forum you suggested. I am new here and certainly appreciate all of the help.

This is great. I'm pretty new to storyline, too. I was wondering if there was a way for the checkmark to happen after the lesson I put in for the lessons as opposed to the person just clicking on the lesson 1 button on the course dashboard. Thanks!
