If you want to edit Alchemy Content to suit the needs of your worksite, import the Alchemy course into Creator. This will give you the ability to translate to different languages, include pictures of your worksite, and change the questions, among other edits.
Import Alchemy Content into Creator
Editable content is available through a login-enabled download function. This step requires Creator Admin access, set by either your Diamond Admin or Alchemy.
- From the Alchemy Creator tab, select Import
- Select Download from the pop-up window
- Sign in to Alchemy Manager:
- Customer Name: If your Alchemy Manager website is https://www.sistemlms.com/tastyfoods, your Customer Name is “tastyfoods”
- Username and Password: Same as your Alchemy Manager website login
-
Store login information: Select to save your login for future downloads
- Choose a language and course
- Select Import
- If prompted, accept the End User License Agreement (EULA)
- The import may take a few minutes
- Save the file and Edit to your specifications
Edit Alchemy Point Slides and Questions
- Once the Alchemy content is downloaded, select the Point or Question slide to be changed
- Adjust the following as needed (see starred areas in the picture below):
- Slide Images: Edit or delete and insert new
- Manual Advance and Full Screen options: Select and deselect the boxes as needed
- Text and Voice Over: Edit text and re-record voice over with Creator or other software
Notes:
• Identify how your edits affect the rest of the course - Example: Editing the slide text usually leads to re-recording the audio to match; however this will leave you with one vocally mismatched slide in your course.
