How to secure e-learning courses on Rise Articulate
Hello, I have some troubles that need your support
Our courses were built for internal employees, so the content must be protected. However, when sharing the preview link on Rise 360, this link was not protected, whoever gets the link, they both have access to view this course. The Security Team told us that maybe we must remove all the courses (by the way we also publish as Scorm and upload it to LMS)
So is there any solution to protect our content on Rise 360, like a password, locker...?
Thanks a lot
Hi,
Rise is a tool that allows you to create online courses. That's it.
It does not have any student management and content delivery capabilities.
You need to use your Rise courses within a LMS to get those features and functions'.
Hi, VIB Learning!
Thanks so much for reaching out!
Karl is correct that Rise 360 is a tool that allows you to create online courses. One detail I want to share is that it is possible to password-protect a share link. Here's how:
- From the course main page, click Share
- Click the Set a password checkbox
- Type your password, and click OK
If you are uploading your course to an LMS, they may have some additional settings available. I recommend checking with them directly as well!
Hello,
If you're working with shared content from a colleague.
In the Share link - there is no option to set a password.Is this feature only available for content where you are the original author?
Would I need to duplicate the course first, before being able to set a password?Many thanks
Hi Louise!
Thanks for reaching out!
- If I understand correctly, you are collaborating on a Rise 360 course as an Editor. Is that right?
Only the owner of the content can set a Share password. Here are a couple of options to consider:
-
- One option is to have the owner of the course send you a copy. It will be an independent copy and please note that any changes you make in this copy will not show up in the other authors' versions.
- Another option is to transfer the content to a different owner. If you have other collaborators on the course, they will remain when you transfer ownership.
Please let me know if you have any other questions! Happy to help!
Thank you for your reply.
I was able to duplicate the content, I was then able to set a password to the shared copy.
You're welcome, Louise!
Thanks so much for the update. Glad to hear this option was a success!
Feel free to reach out with any other questions or discoveries in the future. Happy to help!
