Branding Training in Rise
I am creating multiple training courses for a very large project using Rise 360. My superiors are asking that the training be branded with our logo more prominently.
I can't seem to find a conducive way to brand the course. The logo has words, so adding it to the theme photo where it will show in the square above the table of contents progress does not work at all, since that square also has words (the name of the course)
I tried to make my profile picture the logo, so it would show on all the courses, but it's extremely small doing it that way.
Has anyone found a successful way to brand with a logo throughout training courses?
Good news, everyone! Now in Rise 360, you can crop your logo to decrease white space and increase its size to customize your cover page branding.
Have a look at these logo enhancements under Theme > Cover Page, and let us know if you have any questions!
Hey Tim, thanks for checking in! We haven't made any changes to the logo feature in Rise 360. We'll keep you posted!
Reading other notes in the forum, I see mentions of the logo format needing to be 1:1, 4:3, 16:9 etc. Ive tried using png and jpg at 800x600, etc, no such luck. I have our company logo as an SVG, so what is RISE wanting, since it is not taking the png or jpg files
Hi there, Doug. I was able to use the attached logo_43 file as a logo in an example Rise 360 course. Is this not working for you? Tell me more about what's happening!
Hi Jessica,
I'm not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for, but one option might be to include an Image & Text block as the first block in your course. By placing the logo on the left and some introductory text on the right, you can effectively brand your course with a significantly larger logo than the current logo or profile options provide.
You obviously won't have it visible throughout the course, but if you wanted to, you could have it at the start of every section, if it was deemed necessary. Personally, I think that a large logo at the start is all that is needed.
If you then saved that block as a template, it would be very easy to add it to all your courses and simply edit the text, thus ensuring that your courses were not only branded, but that the branding was also consistent in its appearance.
Hope this helps
Yes, I knew I could put an actual photo block in with the logo. Thank you.
Hi Jessica,
Have you tried adding it to space specially designed for the logo? If you go into the course settings, it's the first option you'll see (see screenshot).
Let me know if that ends up working for you or not.
Yes, but this only puts the logo very small on the very first page, where they click "start course" it doesn't do anything significant. And it's very small.
If you'd like, you could also add your company's logo to the top or bottom of each lesson by inserting it into an image block.
I hope that's helpful!
Adding my voice, here. I would love to be able to a) change the size of the logo on the course cover page (it's tiny!) and b) have the option for the logo to appear in the side-bar underneath the course title, so it's always present when a learner is participating in the course. thanks!
Thanks for your feedback! I've gone ahead and logged a feature request for this. I'll share any updates with you here. :)
Hi Allison
Rise settings say that the "logo appears in the upper left corner of your course index" but it only appears on the cover page. Am I doing something wrong ?
Any updates here on above request?
Sure, I am trying to use any of the pre-built Ericsson Corporate approved logo's for our internal coursework. I also have access to the scalable vector graphic of our "ECON" (our nomenclature for the Ericsson Icon, the three positive slope rounded lines.) I know RISE does not currently support .svg, but it seems that none of my image formats will upload, as RISE rejected any uploads I attempted. When I am building a new course, under the section
Logo
You can brand your course with your organization's identity by showing your company name or logo. Upload a custom logo below: your logo appears in the upper left corner of your course index.It was rejecting any and all valid image files (jpg/png/you name it.) Today it is working, even with that same logo_43 file (which was not working last week.)
Hi there, Doug! It sounds like you were able to successfully upload your image file to the logo area, is that right?
Please let us know if there's anything else we can do to help!
Hi James, I'm sorry that wording is confusing. The course index is the same thing as the course cover page. You aren't doing anything wrong!
thanks
