2 THINGS CHANGE ON THE WAY IN
impact text · Imported as a Statement block.
chart · Data kept as text — rebuild as a Graph block.

It was never the tool keeping you there

You have fifty courses in Rise. Some of them are years old. The people who built a few of them have left, and their Rise accounts went with them.

Moving somewhere cheaper would mean rebuilding all of it by hand. So you renew, every year, because the alternative is a project nobody has time for.

That is not a tooling decision. It is a hostage situation with an invoice attached.

The courses are already portable

A Rise SCORM export carries the whole course as structured data — every lesson, every block, every image. It always has. Nothing was locked; it simply had nowhere to go.

What rebuilding actually costs

The reason nobody leaves is not the subscription. It is this.

Hours are our own estimate for a straightforward course and will vary with how much media it carries. The point is the order of magnitude, not the exact figure — and that a project measured in months is why a renewal gets signed.

Block by block, exactly

Measured on two real courses four years apart — 594 blocks, 43 different types. Not an estimate.

Everything in the last two groups is listed by name and lesson in a report when the import finishes, so you know where to look rather than finding out from a learner. Across both sample courses, seven blocks out of 594 fell into the last row.

What this was built against
COURSE ONE · 2026
10 lessons, 256 blocks, 41 media files. English. Galleries, a labeled graphic, a sorting activity, a fill-in-the-blank quiz.
COURSE TWO · 2022
27 lessons, 338 blocks, 64 media files. Arabic, right-to-left, packaged in a format Rise no longer uses.

Four years apart, on purpose. Rise has changed how it packages courses in that time, and an importer built only against this year’s export would fail on exactly the courses people most want to rescue — the old ones, whose source files are long gone.

Arabic and right-to-left courses

Rise had no right-to-left support for years, so Arabic courses from that era were made by editing the exported HTML by hand. Those edits are in the markup, not the course data — an importer reading the data alone would bring the Arabic in as left-to-right.

So direction is worked out from the content itself. An Arabic course arrives as an Arabic course, in a tool that handles right-to-left properly rather than through a patch you have to maintain.

Three steps

1
Export from Rise as SCORM
Open the course, choose Export, then SCORM. Any version — we have tested packages from 2022 and from this year.
2
Drop the zip in and read the summary
You see how many lessons and blocks were found and exactly what will change — before anything is created. Nothing is imported until you say so.
3
Edit it like any other course
It opens in the editor as a normal course. Nothing to convert again, no read-only mode. Export it back out as SCORM 1.2, 2004, xAPI or cmi5.

What about Storyline?

No, and we would rather say so than half-support it.

Storyline is built on a timeline with layers, states, triggers and variables. This is a block-based editor — there is nowhere for any of that to land. An import would give you the text and lose everything that made the course worth building in Storyline, which is worse than starting over because you would spend a day finding out.

Rise is a different shape. It is blocks in a column, which is the same shape as this, and that is exactly why the import works.

Questions

Do I need my original Rise files?

No. You need the SCORM package Rise exported, which is the zip you uploaded to your LMS. That matters when the person who built a course has left and their Rise account went with them — the published package is often all that survives, and it is enough.

Will it work with old courses?

Yes. Rise has changed how it packages courses over the years, and the importer reads both the current format and the older one. It was built against a course made in 2022 alongside one made this year, precisely because the courses people most want to rescue are the old ones.

What happens to my images and videos?

They are copied into your own account, so the imported course owns its media rather than pointing at a zip file on your computer. If any file cannot be copied you are told which ones, and those blocks arrive in place without their picture.

Can I try it before subscribing?

Yes. The trial is free for 14 days and the import works during it. Bring one real course rather than a test one — you will know within ten minutes whether this is worth doing for the rest of your library.

How long does a course take?

About a minute for a typical course. Longer if it carries a lot of video, because every file is copied across. You see a summary first, so you know what you are waiting for.

Does it change anything in Rise?

No. It reads a file you exported. Your Rise account, your courses and your subscription are untouched, and you can keep both running as long as you like.

Import one real course and look at it

Not a test course — a real one, with the awkward blocks in it. That is the only way to know. Free for 14 days, no card required.
