Block Course Progress When Offline

Storyline side is covered — Andrew's pointing at the Player Properties option that pauses the course when the connection drops. One practical note for your audit requirement: that setting stops the learner, but nothing reaches the LMS while they're offline either way. SCORM simply can't send data without a connection. So the real compliance question is what happens on resume — make sure your suspend/resume settings and the LMS's relaunch behavior actually put the learner back where they stopped, and test it. A course can pass every design review and still fail the audit if the LMS restarts learners at the menu.

Rise is the harder half. There's no native offline detection in the published output that I'm aware of. You could inject JavaScript into the published package listening for offline/online events, but that's modifying published output — unsupported, and a Rise update can break it. For mandatory training, I'd push this requirement to the LMS level rather than the authoring tool.
