New Rise Feature - Exit Course
Many of you told us you needed a way for Rise learners to return to your LMS. So we've added a few features that make that super easy.
You can now set buttons in block lessons to leave the course, or add an ever-present link that lets learners return to an LMS.
Check out this Peek video describing the features:

Cool feature. You said in the video that the "ever present" exit button communicates to the LMS that the learning is done. It still respects the completion criteria that you have already set, correct?
That's correct, Gregory.

How is this feature different from the trigger options in Storyline? I regularly add an Exit Course link to my player or a button on my summary screen. Was this not an option at all in Rise?
Hi Paula,
The exit course feature wasn't available when Rise first launched in November 2016. So it's a new feature available now that will function similarly to what you had used in Storyline before.
Hope that helps and let us know if you need anything else!

If they stop early will it send back info to remember where they left off - as was the case from Storyline 2?
Hi Cynthia,
At the moment, a re-launched Rise course will always reach out to the LMS and ask for the suspend data needed to resume the learner's previous attempt at the course (in contrast to Storyline, where you have a few other options).
Some Learning Management Systems have features that will allow you to force a new attempt on the learner after completion, thereby declining to provide the suspend data needed to resume.
Are you having any difficulty with your course not resuming ?

I have not attempted it yet - but will be testing - just didn't see that addressed in the thread of conversation

No worries Cynthia! Looks like your email signature came through when you replied via email! No worries, this Peek video will show you how to remove it.

This function is not working for me, both the button in blocks and the link which is always visible in the right upper corner. Can there be a reason why?
Hi Menno,
The Exit Course feature is not working for you? What is the behavior that you are seeing when utilizing this button vs what you are expecting to see?
I'd love to take a look to better understand and assist you.

Hi Leslie,
The buttons don't do anything. I exported the file as a SCORM 1.2 file and uploaded it in my LMS surrounding. I turned the 'Exit Course Link' option in the export settings ON. But when I try the exit buttons, nothing happens. I expected the window to close.
