Creating courses that do not score in Storyline

Hi all,

We have a government-mandated course with specific needs in how it is executed. Initially, before we had an LMS, it would consist of a PDF, which would be read by the learner and then flagged as completed on the backend by the instructor. Now, with an LMS, we want to create an SL course instead of the PDF, but we need the course not to show completion. I hope that the LMS can flag that it was taken and then can be flagged manually in the LMS. I have been using a survey (as that does not have to be scored) to attempt this, but have not had any luck. Any suggestions?

  • Hello James,

    Thanks for reaching out! 

    There is a 'Complete Course' trigger in Storyline 360 that you can use to manually set the completion status of your course to Incomplete.

    You can try testing how this trigger will work in your LMS to see if it will fit your requirements. Check out this article to learn more about using 'Complete Course' triggers in Storyline 360: 

    And here an article which explains when a course communications completion to an LMS.

    Let me know if you have any questions!

  • Thank you! I will test it and let you know the results. This is to be a dummy course and used as a carrier course for a document that the learner needs, but only the instructor can pass/fail it manually.

  • Sounds great, James! Feel free to keep us posted with a follow-up reply in this thread! 

    Hope that you have a great weekend, and happy developing! ✨
