Howdy friends! I'm here seeking an answer that seems to be a mixed bag of sorts. We're trying to get a couple of courses uploaded and SuccessFactors keep throwing back a "Failed" status. The error log is quite robust, but it keeps pointing to a .jpg file within the SCORM itself. However, even after removing it and redownloading the file, it's still there?? I'd rather not clog this discussion with the whole error, but I went through the whole thing.. the error with the .jpg is the only one. Has anyone had this issue before? What did you do to solve it? I went through each file in the SCORM and didn't find any spaces or special characters. We also have a file size limit in our system (200MB) and these files are well below that. Any help is appreciated! - Justin Garrett28Views0likes3CommentsCorporate Trainer with No Degree
I worked as a trainer for a trucking company. I facilitated in-class training and managed continuous learning by creating PPTs, converting them to MP4 videos and uploading to an LMS. I then assigned them to office staff and drivers and comminicated completion to leadership. I do not have formal training in instructional design or a college degree, but want to continue in this career with the goal to eventually freelance. I'm currently working on learning Articulate and upskilling with other multi-media and editing tools, and brushing up on learning methodologies. I do plan to get my ID professional certificate. My concern is the lack of the degree and no formal training in ID. I was a Quality & Security SME and was promoted to a trainer internally and have 6+ years experience. I've been getting mixed feedback on what's most important, a degree or a good portfolio to show I have the skills needed. I'm also seeing a mix of degree requirements and equivalent experience. I want to make sure I'm on the right track with just upskilling, the professional certificate, and working on a good portfolio or if I need to try to get a degree. Any advice?11Views0likes2CommentsHow does your organization support different ways of thinking and working?
For the neurodivergent folks in L&D… Lately I’ve been thinking about what it’s actually like to build learning experiences with a neurodivergent brain, ADHD in my case. Not just how it influences my design decisions (as mentioned in my previous post), but how it shapes the experience of doing this work inside a team. For me, neurodivergence shows up as a kind of heightened sensitivity to flow, clarity and cognitive load. It helps me spot moments where a learner might lose their place, or where a step needs more framing to feel safe and predictable. That part has become a real strength. But there’s another layer I don’t see discussed much in our field: How well do our teams understand the way our brains work? Not in a clinical sense, more in the everyday reality of collaboration, feedback, expectations, and creative problem-solving. Things like: having time to process before diving into solutions getting clear checkpoints instead of vague “keep going” feedback having tools and structure that reduce mental friction balancing flexibility with predictability For some of us, these aren’t preferences. They directly affect how well we can design. So I’m curious to hear from others who identify as neurodivergent, in whatever way that shows up for you: Do you feel like your strengths and challenges as a neurodivergent designer are understood in your team or workflow? And how does your neurodivergence influence the way you approach learning design itself? Share only if you feel comfortable. I know these conversations can be personal. But I also think they make our craft stronger, because the more we understand our own brains, the better we design for everyone else’s.89Views3likes8CommentsAI Upgrade - Getting it Across the Line
I really want to get the AI upgrade for our licenses, however, the business I work for is a little adverse to implementing AI tools due to risk concerns. (I work in the financial services industry). I am preparing a business case and would love to hear about other people's experiences on how they were able to get their case across the line. Links to relevant information in the IT space etc. Just looking for the best approach and what sort of governance has been put in place.32Views1like3CommentsTechnical Question: How do I open a saved project in Storyline for editing?
I feel very foolish asking this, but I cannot find any info on how to do this. I worked on a project and published it months ago. Now I need to edit it, but it is not in the Recent Products section of the Storyline Home screen. I know I can browse for the module saved on my computer, but I have no idea what file to access - there are a lot associated with the project. Can someone tell me what to look for? Is there an extension I should find? Am I missing a very obvious and simple thing here? Thanks in advance!27Views0likes2Commentsneed help with multiple packages that make up one course
Where I work, we are creating training courses that are multiple modules long, anywhere between four modules to ten modules. We create each module as a separate .story file and publish that .story file from Storyline. This is because some of the .story files are reused across different courses. Then we have multiple published packages from Storyline that need to be combined to create the final course. The ways I know how to do this are two-fold 1 - use the features of an LMS to build a curriculum using the published packages 2 - create a multi-sco https://support.scorm.com/hc/en-us/articles/360051563253-Combining-Multiple-SCOs-Into-One-SCORM-Course What we want to do is take our Storyline files and publish them such that we can have one cmi5 package at the end of publishing. For example, if I have the course called Course 101 which consists of the following Introduction.story module-1.story module-2.story conclusion.story I want to publish all these .story files such that I get one Course 101 cmi 5 file which will contain all four pieces of the course. For those of you who are creating separate Storyline files that make up a course, how are you combining these files? Is anyone managing to use Storyline to take separate files and merge them into one final published file?56Views0likes2CommentsScreen focus
I’m curious how others approach screen focus during reviews. Lately, when I’m looking at Rise courses, I keep coming back to one question: What is the learner supposed to do differently after this screen? When that’s hard to answer, I usually find the screen is: trying to cover more than one idea mixing purposes (teaching + explaining + assessing) or using an interaction that doesn’t really support an action I’ve started using a simple constraint to guide decisions: one screen supports one outcome one interaction supports one decision or action It’s helped me simplify reviews more than tweaking layouts or adding features. How do you decide when a screen is “doing too much”? Would love to spark a conversation on how other learning professionals check for screen focus during review.13Views0likes0CommentsShort quiz at the end of a lesson: adding the question directly Vs. using the question bank?
Hello! I recently found out about the question bank, did a few tests to see what it's capable of, and I still have a question: While I think it's a no-brainer to use the question bank for the final quizz, I keep seeing pros and cons of using it for the quick comprehension question at the end of a lesson : Pros : All the questions are at the same place, if one needs to be edited, no need to search for it in every lesson, it's right there in the question bank. Cons : Seems a bit overkill, and the question bank should be used only when the questions will be shared between courses, or when its features (like randomly selecting questions) will be used. What do you think is the best practice here, please?36Views0likes1Comment
