I recently learned that a published Rise course does not save a learner's progress the way an SL360 course will, either inside an LMS or via web delivery. This is not ideal as our learners often return to a course to complete it over time.
Are there plans to add this functionality to Rise courses? I certainly hope so, as building in Rise is very fast compared to SL360 - and I we don't want to lose the option to publish with Rise.
I experienced this issue in the Docebo LMS. It was a HTTPS certificate configuration error. Docebo was able to correct it. Throwing that out there in case it's relevant. :) Good luck!
Publishing a Rise course for web delivery will never save learner progress, as there is no back-end system in place to capture the learner data. That is the purpose and function of a LMS.
Rise 360 is a course development system; it cannot manage learners or their data as this requires individual learner accounts within a LMS.

This cannot be entirely accurate either, as our experience is that SL2 and SL360 courses published for web, do in fact save the learner's progress when delivered via the same method. ie. without an LMS, behind secure login and within an i-frame.
Karl, it is still about Rise courses. You replied that a publishing for web delivery, would never save progress - unless you mean only for Rise? And if so, then my original question stands for Articulate.
Because the experience is different between the two authoring tools - which is not ideal and does not add up in the context of your reply.
When a Rise 360 course is hosted in an LMS, learners can exit and resume with their progress intact. The course will automatically pick up at the beginning of the last lesson or quiz where they left off.
Web-only courses will always start over at the beginning.
If you have other questions about that, we're here to help!
Thanks for the reply! Can you explain why this experience is different with an SL360 course and Rise course when they are published in a web-only environment?
As the SL360 web-only course does save a learner's progress between sessions.
Storyline 360 has a feature that allows for bookmarking and resuming where you left off, but Rise 360 doesn't have that feature. I'll let our team know that you need that functionality, and we'll send you an update if we add this feature in the future!
Could you please give an update about this feature? I've been trying to keep a learner progress using rise360 "bookmarking feature". I see that is not working right now, as the learner has to start the course from begin after each login.

My thoughts are without an LMS which applies all data to your user account and can track press that this would be difficult in cloud delivery, due to having less ways to authenticate and identify who is taking the course at what point, as the URL will be the same.
Just wondering outside of an LMS, is there an option for saving progress outside of having an LMS.
Reading this back, I may very well have answered by own question, buy hey ho!
If you are running a Rise course outside a LMS, no student progress and resume data can be saved.
The reason for this is that Rise student bookmarking, progress and resume data needs to be saved to a specific student account, which only exists in an LMS environment.

Rise currently already tracks learner progress over time.
In our LMS, Rise saves all learner progress per course.
When restarting a previous learning session, the Rise menu will load the learner status to date.
Learners will also be returned to the point where the left off during their last training session.
Which LMS are you using?

Our experience is that Rise is not saving progress in web delivery.
Ah. Yes, I've experienced that as well. We serve a few courses from AWS on our corporate page and user progress isn't bookmarked.
Web delivery is a completely different scenario.

And yet, publishing a Presenter course or a Storyline course for Web delivery did in fact bookmark progress. I believe it was via cookies.

Hi Pam, yes, this is the same thing we have experienced...
Tara your original question was specifically about saving progress in Rise courses.
My answer was framed in that context.

Hi Alyssa,
Thank you! Yes, bookmarking for Rise would be something that we need for future functionality.
Thanks again,

Is your course hosted on an LMS?
Just checking this is still the case.
My thoughts are without an LMS which applies all data to your user account and can track press that this would be difficult in cloud delivery, due to having less ways to authenticate and identify who is taking the course at what point, as the URL will be the same.

Hi Kris,

The reason for this is that Rise student bookmarking, progress and resume data needs to be saved to a specific student account, which only exists in an LMS environment.
Our SL360 courses bookmark outside of an LMS, so this is not limited to having an LMS.
