In Presenter I could look at the top of the published module to see the amount of time in minutes and seconds for the length of the module. Where is that in Storyline?
It is an estimate in Storyline. But here's where you can at least get a good idea of your course length.
Click the Publish button, then click the ellipsis by the Title field and the duration is displayed. Here's a screen grab from SL 2 the procedure is the same in Storyline 1 it just looks a tad different.
Tracy's suggestion still works for SL 3 and 360. Warning: it only adds the slide timelines, so there is no allowance made for the time the learner spends in interactions, or inactivity. The accuracy can vary widely.
The best way to find the actual running time is to publish your course as a video (that allows for time for narration and it includes layers) and look at the duration of your resulting video's timeline. After you get that time, add about 10-15% more time to allow for clicking time.

Hope this is what you were looking for.
Good Luck!

Thank you.
Thank you. This was very helpful.
Super helpful....thanks
Has anyone else found this to be way off? I have a course that is at least 20 minutes and the estimate is 7.
To get a really accurate number, you just about have to have QA time it.
That's what we've always done, so I was excited to find the time estimate... until I wasn't :)
How can we calculate the total duration of module? I am unable to find it
