Exporting courses for editing
I am working with a project team that wants to use Rise 360 for creation of learning modules, and for various formatting and presentation reasons they are not interested in using Storyline.
The issue is that the final deliverables need to be accompanied by editable source files that are to be stored in a public repository, and to my knowledge this is not possible with Rise 360.
But I'm hoping you can tell me I'm wrong! Here is my train of thought:
- I know courses can be exported an LMS package (e.g. SCORM), but to my knowledge these packages are meant for presentation not editing.
- I know courses can be exported as web-only output (i.e. ZIP file, presumably with HTML files within it??), but I don't know how easily these could be edited by a layperson.
- I know courses can be exported as PDFs, but there are limitations for interactive elements and PDFs are designed to not to be edited.
- I know courses can be duplicated and shared with other Rise users to edit, but this requires the course owner to manually grant access by recipient email address.
- I don't see an "Import by file" option in Rise 360, so I presume that there is still no option to download a course package for backup and reupload it to Rise 360 for editing later.
Have I missed anything or gotten anything wrong?
- If so, please let me know!
- If not, please share any strategies you may have used for projects with deliverable requirements like this.
Thanks!
Hi David,
The short answer is that Rise cannot produce editable source files that can be stored in a public repository.
In order to have ongoing access to an editable Rise course, you need to maintain an active Articulate 360 subscription.

Hi All,
My company is new to Articulate 360. We brought it in as one of our Instructional Designers used it in a previous company.
We have the same requirement for having editable source files that can be stored in a company owned repository (doesn't have to be public).
This is a show stopper issue for us.
Has there been any progress on this?
thanks, BobHello, I have a related question: I have created a Rise course that another University is interested in adapting. They also have a (separate) Articulate licence. I have exported the files for them, but they are not able to edit them. Is there any way they can do this? They have asked me for a .story file, but am I right to think this doesn't apply to Rise courses?
Many thanks, Christine
A .story file is the source file for a Storyline course.
Rise is web-based software. Thus, there isn't a "file" to share. However, you can send a copy of a course to anyone who also has an Articulate 360 license.
With the Send a copy option, the recipient will get a separate version of the course in their dashboard. They will own that copy and can edit it as desired. (The version in your Rise dashboard remains the same.)
This is much simpler than I thought!
Many thanks for this.
Christine
I do not have the option to send a copy:
Hi Karol,
Do you have a Rise.com subscription, or a Rise 360 Subscription?
