Skip ahead feature

I attended the Quick Tips and Tricks episode #125. This episode announced a new feature called 'Skip ahead' that is offered using the quiz feature. It's a great enhancement and can't wait to begin using it for pre-test options.

I immediately thought of another scenario where something like this would be useful, 'Choose Your Role'. I'm faced with many situations where the course is taken by a diverse audience, however certain content may not be applicable for the entire audience. Although Storyline can support, what I refer to as "branching" paths, this is difficult in RISE.

Unfortunately, the new RISE feature doesn't allow customization where I could update what is visible to the learner so it doesn't appear as a quiz. I would assume similar coding could by used for a "Choose your role" block. Based on the learner's selection from the options provided, it would either take the user to the very next lesson or to a lesson that developer chooses. 

I'm going to look into creating a customer block with coding to support my need but it would be great if it was considered for a new block option.

    DebClemons​ Maybe you could use a button stack, a button for each role, and point the button trigger to the relevant lesson for each role

    DebClemons​: As DShaw​ said, you can use button blocks for navigation to control the paths a user can follow. 

    This solution comes with some caveats, which are listed in this post about Branching in Rise. The post also links to a published Rise course that demonstrates and explains the settings used for branching.
