Rise 360 is one of the fastest ways to build online courses that look great on any screen. But when you open it for the first time, there's a lot to discover: the dashboard, the outline, the theme, more than twenty kinds of blocks, quizzes, publishing options, and now a whole set of AI tools.
This course walks you through all of it, one feature at a time.
Instead of random clicking, every lesson explains what an option is, what it's for, and when to use it. And everything is shown on one real example: "Your First Week as a Barista", an onboarding course for a small coffee shop chain. By the end, you'll know Rise well enough to build your own course with confidence.

Every lesson is short and focused, with clear on-screen highlights, so you can watch a lesson and immediately try it yourself. Each section ends with a quiz, and four practical assignments guide you to build your own course. You also get a block cheat sheet, a course planning template and the finished example course to explore. You can follow along on a free Articulate 360 trial.
