New in Rise 360: 1,000+ Templates With Real and Placeholder Content

I absolutely LOVE the new content from Articulate!

I have built a new stream of 'generic' content in what we are calling the EDGE series. For each topic (we have done three so far), I have used each lesson as a stand alone module (all we have done is write learning objectives and an introduction). In our LMS, learners can access the modules individually, or all topics in a series as a Learning Plan. Here's what we've done so far:

• EDGE Integrity Series - 4 modules 
• EDGE Writing Series - 7 modules
• EDGE Phone Series - 3 modules

The modules have been well received, and we plan to offer more. My favourite is the Integrity series as the content is FRESH and not easily found elsewhere.

In addition, I am developing a new Prospecting module to introduce new sales people to our sales philosophy and process. As a result, I have included a lesson on each of the following topics using content cherry-picked from the Articulate sales content: 

• Qualifying: Fundamentals
• Preparing for Presentations: Fundamentals
• Overcoming Objections: Fundamentals
• Closing: Fundamentals

This has enabled me to supplement company-specific content with industry-standard fundamentals. I've positioned the content as an 'optional refresher' that may come in handy when learning about how we do things (so that external new hires with ample sales experience don't feel we are talking down to them). I am looking forward to piloting this module soon.

I am always watching for more of this content from Articulate. It is truly EXCELLENT!

Hi Tony. Glad to see that you are enjoying our pre-built content. Here is an article about selling Rise 360 courses with Real content:

Hello, Sue! 

There's no need for citation or credit when using one of the prebuilt courses, templates, or themes available in Rise.

Our content team researches each topic independently and writes original content based on broad areas of agreement, commonly accepted business practices, and input from subject matter experts. All imagery in our business content has either been custom-created by our team or comes from royalty-free sources. When building in Rise, and per our terms of service, you are free to use all content with no need for attribution or additional citation.

First of all, working with a new startup, launching our first LMS, it's fantastic to be able to use these templates and create a library of offerings to start our system with. I'm impressed with the in depth topics and quality of the content--(and keep getting distracted trying to watch and learn from them all). -- thank you!

My questions--

1-- Is there a catalog of what is available in the library that we could easily share with stakeholders? I plan to ask our HR team if they would want to launch or customize the templates available in the content library. It would be great to be able to share the offerings with them so they can review in advance. 

2-- Also, are the content libraries a static offering, or something Articulate is planning to expand and keep adding to over time? I would like to create a monthly update with new courses for example from the big idea club, and just wondering if we will run out of new stuff after a while. 

Is there a way to pull a report of all of the titles, if it is real content or if it is a course template? Also, are the new microlearning segments just sections from the real content courses?

Hi Tabatha! 

Thanks so much for reaching out. 

Yes! I’d like to provide you with a list of both real content and course templates we provide: 

• Rise 360: Use Real Content Templates
• Rise 360: List of Placeholder Content Course Templates

When working in Rise 360, you can see on the Create New page we indicate which courses are Real Content or a Course Template. 

There is a way to filter within Rise 360 in order to know what courses are available. Here is a quick Peek where I walk through the steps of adjusting the filters.

To answer your second question, our new Microlearning feature includes templates with real and placeholder content that are brand new!

Here is an article that shows all of the offerings we have:

• Rise 360: Use Microlearning Content Templates

Another cool feature of Microlearning is that you can choose a continuous or stepped navigation (To modify your navigation mode, select Theme > Navigation.), as well as the ability to combine blocks ( Click the Connect button to link two blocks. Unlink blocks by clicking the Disconnect button). This can bring a different look and feel to your content! 

I hope that helps!  Please let us know if you have any other questions!

Is there any way to know who the authors of the Real Content are? We want to make sure to attribute it in our product sheets, and also to know who created them originally so we can "vet" them, so to speak. Like, some way of knowing what process they go through to be considered actual content.

Hi there, Learning & Development! The authors of the real content courses are our Content Writers here at Articulate! Our Articulate Content Writing team researches each topic independently and writes original content based on broad areas of agreement, commonly accepted business practices, and input from subject matter experts.
