Email Notification for Course Completion
Apr 21, 2014
I've created a course for our company employees using Studio 13 (Presenter, Engage, and Quizmaker). We want to load the course to a web server and establish an email notification process, so that when an employee successfully completes the training an email notification is generated to the employee and our training administrator. The administrator will then update a database designed to keep track of who has completed our various courses. We don't have an LMS so this is how we must track keep track of who is completing training. For us, successfully completing the training means scoring 100% on the final quiz, which is part of the course (not standalone). Individuals take the quiz as many times as needed to get a final score of 100%. We understand that the exam results email feature no longer exists in Articulate, but we need some type of comparable workaround that would essentially accomplish the same thing. We're looking for some type of mechanism to trigger an automatic email to our training administrator. Is anyone aware of any type of file that can be added or script that we can have the training module execute upon successful completion that would generate the email . . . or any other approach that might work? Thanks.

Hi there Randy,
Usually, I'd recommend using an LMS for this type of functionality. Some LMS services provide an option to generate an email when courses loaded into the system are completed by a learner that has logged in to the system. However, it sounds as though you're not looking to go this route.
While scripting or other coding might be an option for you, it's not officially supported. I recommend posting over in the Building Better Courses section of the forums. This should help with a little more exposure to your question and hopefully result in some additional suggestions that may work for you.
In the meantime, this discussion may help:

Best of luck, Randy!
Hi Christine
i was hoping that you would be aware of a means to notify an admin for the compeltion of a Storyline module on blackboard 9.1?
Hi Aidan and welcome to Heroes!
There is not an option within Storyline that would allow you to notify an admin when a user completes the course - so you may want to look at the other links Christine previously shared, and reach out to your Blackboard team to see what settings are available to you.
Hello Christine, I used jotform to create a test but now I am having a challenge importing the quiz into storyline. Can you give some guidelines?
Hi Melissa and welcome to E-Learning Heroes!
