Developing SOP's

Hi RajN007. I suggest trying to put some samples of various types of content from your SOPs into both Storyline and Rise, publishing the resulting (tiny) sample courses, and uploading them to your LMS. That'll let you compare the results from Storyline and Rise for your specific use case, and will probably lead to some specific questions about issues you come across.

Some benefits of Storyline:

• Far more flexible than Rise (for example, you can choose the dimensions of your slides, the dimensions of photos or diagrams you include, and whether your slides automatically resize to fit the user's browser window).
• Can import PowerPoint slides, which could let you (for example) have a team of people create draft slides in PowerPoint, ready for import into Storyline. (Also, Word is getting a new AI-powered Export to PowerPoint feature, which could be really handy here too.)

Some benefits of Rise:

• Typically much quicker to get started than with Storyline.

In particular, if your SOPs contain photos or diagrams, it might be hard (or impossible) to get them to display at a usable size in Rise.

Some questions to consider:

• What software was used to create your paper SOPs?
• How many graphics do your SOPs contain? SL is much better (more flexible) at handling graphics than Rise is.
• Will your courses require translation into multiple languages? (You can do that in SL and Rise, but the process differs. So if your content will need to be translated, again it'd be worth trying out the steps to get an idea of what's involved.)
