I know that Rise currently does not have the capability to end with a certificate, I'm posting to see if anyone has come up with a creative work-around to have a certificate at the end of a Rise course that a learner could print and turn in (my company doesn't have an LMS so we have to input any completed modules into our ERP by hand-we're a little behind the times). If anyone has come up with a way to do this or at lease have something where we can print a name and a passed (or score but not required) that would be fantastic! Thanks in advance!

I'm so confused about how I feel about Rise. On the one hand, I love it. On the other, I'm dissatisfied with the lack of progress with customer features like certificates or making logo's bigger etc. Like, learner certificates are such a fundamental requirement yet, 2-3 years on, we just keep getting told a) it's on the feature request list or b) look at these crazy workarounds others are doing...

I've developed a work-around for this using Google Slides, Google Forms, and the Form Publisher Google Chrome add-on. I used Google Slides to create a certificate of completion template. At the end of the Rise online module, I include a Google Form for students to complete, which collects their email address, first and last name, and date that they complete the online module. The Form Publisher Google Chrome add-on (I use the paid version) is then used to draw information from the associated Google Form fields (in this case, first name, last name, and completion date) and inserts it into designated fields within the certificate of completion. When the student hits the "submit" button after filling out the Google Form, an email is automatically generated and sent to the student's email address. The email message can be customized. A PDF of the certificate of completion (including students' name and date of online module completion) is attached with the email message. The PDF can then be easily saved/downloaded, printed, forwarded via email, etc. Including a screenshot below of the certificate template (automatically sent to student as a PDF, including their name and completion date). So far, this has worked for my needs. Would love to hear if anyone has come up with any other work-arounds to be able to learn from one another! :)

Hello Kristie, Thank you for sharing this certificate "workflow".Were you able to successfully embed the Google Form in Rise? Or do you make it available as an external link?

Thank you for following up Kristie. I figured out what I was doing wrong (with help from Articulate Support). I was trying to add Google content as an iframe using the Code Snippet block, as opposed to the Embed block. I'm all set.

Hi Mark, The first response I listed (up at the top of this discussion thread) describes the process I use. The questions you pose both relate to functions using Google Forms along with a Google Form add-on called Form Publisher. I adapted a Google Slides certificate template. The Form Publisher add-on allows responses that are collected via the Google Form to "populate" specified fields that I designated within the Google Slides certificate template. Upon completing the Google Form, the participant clicks the "submit" button, the certificate "fields" are automatically populated, and a PDF version of the "filled in" certificate is automatically emailed to the participant. I hope this helps. Please let me know if any other questions. Wishing you the best!

Hi Shelby -- Just echoing the others who asked for more details on how you tweaked your certificate to work in Rise. I'm looking to do the same thing. Thanks!

Hi Kristie

How do you set up the the form to:

Add the information to it, mine generates the form and emails the blank document with none of the collected data.

How do you get it to add the certification date as I can't see an option to add this data in the form wizard.

Thanks Mark

Hi Kristie

Thank you for your reply.

I figured out that once created you need to add the << your information>> on to the Google sheets where you want the info to appear then sync the Form Publisher to your form. Making sure you match your information exactly.

Thanks again.

This is the best way I have found - https://youtu.be/b1Ah4zIRyhM

You can create a certificate in Storyline, then publish it, follow the video directions to then embed that into your Rise course.

Hi Robert

Do not look at the community comments on Rise 360 Quiz feedback or Front screen formatting you will be more confused about how you feel.

Hi all,

Does someone have a workflow, step-by-step on how to implement this? I've installed the Form Publisher, created the form, created the slide with the certificate image... but I don't know how to connect everything together. Please help!

You can track course completion based on a trigger, a quiz result slide, or the number of slides viewed. Just click the Tracking property and choose a tracking option. (If you want to track a score in your LMS, be sure to choose the quiz result option. The other two options don't send scores to the LMS.walletoptions

Hi folks! I'm happy to share that we've released the first few features for custom certificates in Reach 360!

If you publish your Rise 360 courses to Reach 360, you can take advantage of learner certificates that include company name, logos, date of completion, and more! If you haven't tried Reach 360 for distributing content to your learners, you can find out more here.
