Client wants .story (unpublished files) - do they need this?
I'm new to this and have a question about what my client needs. They say that they need the .story file for their LMS. I thought that the published version is all that a client would need. Am I mi...
Hi Stephanie,
As Brett said, no they do not need it for the LMS (an LMS wouldn't even know how to read it).
As a general rule we give all source files to the client at the end (afterall they did pay for it), whether they can use them or not - I guess the deciding factor is the value that you yourself add. If they have purely used you to build the content I can see why you would be concerned about them using your templates as obviously that's less work for you, however if they've used your instructional design and graphic design I wouldn't be too worried.
Also it might be worth mentioning that I usually deal with highly bespoke, industry specific content.
Hope taht helps
