Import from Evolve

Hi, we currently use Evolve Authoring for course creation, but we are looking to possibly change to Articulate. Is it possible to import an existing Evolve course into Articulate?

  • Hi TaffyBlue69 if referring to Articulate Storyline 360, I believe the only format that you can import from is PowerPoint. Therefore, if you can export Evolve to PowerPoint, it will get you part of the way there.

    If referring to Rise 360 (the responsive authoring tool), I don't believe there will be any import options as this would be a very specific feature that would need to translate whatever interactions are in an Evolve course into the Rise blocks.

    I have a feeling that you will be building from scratch, as it is unlikely that the two tools are compatible as they are likely to be different in the features they offer.

    Have a search through the discussion board just in case somebody can recommend a good process for transferring the content.

    Slightly off topic, but I'm interested to know what is the interest in moving to a different authoring tool?

      Hello SamHill, many thanks indeed for the response, much appreciated, very comprehensive reply. Gives me good info to take back to my client...

      The idea behind us possibly switching is to match the software most of our related institutions are using tbh. This potentially could make it simpler to exchange courses etc...
