is it possible: creating security questions

The company I work for would like the ensure that the same student is taking the course 100% of the time. They would like to implement a series of questions at the beginning of the presentation, such as the typical "mother's maiden name" "name of your first pet" etc. that the user will answer, then throughout the presentation the question will be prompted again, and the user has to fill out the same info again just to make sure it's still the same person.

I'm not sure if this is possible, but any suggestions on how to achieve this? I've been on Storyline for only about 15 days learning what I can from messing around and still don't know everything the program can do (or can't do).

That's actually a way better solution and hopefully I can make it happen!

Basically our system is flawed in that I just make the course and send it along to a company that uploads it & hosts it and they have their own way of going about things. Also maybe I am mistaking what you're saying for something else but isn't LMtools Windows OS only? Thanks for your help! The company on the other end is really frustrating. Right now the only way to take their courses (which were designed in sudio) is to use IE because of some weird scripts they run. Or something. I have no idea.

Hi Hannah:

My typo above, "LMS" tools.

Most LMS (Learning Management Systems) have built-in checks to assist with user integrity. Such tools are one I've mentioned above, such as blocking simultaneous logins, and blocking users from changing to another computer once they have started a course, even the login screen, etc...

Storyline is in no way able to block a user from using a course and this function is solely on the LMS.

Good luck reigning in the LMS provider.
