      SCORM definition

      SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference Model) is a standard that formalizes the exchange of content between an authoring tool, like Teach Up, and an LMS (Learning Management System). SCORM allows Teach Up to generate a SCORM package (ZIP file) that can be directly imported into your LMS.

      SCORM Online is a connected format that allows participants to access Teach Up modules with all real-time features, including smart adaptation, personalized recommendations, social interactions, and progress tracking.

      In contrast, SCORM Offline is a disconnected format.

      Choose the SCORM Online (SCORM Cloud) Version

      Under “SCORM Export Version”, choose the compatible version for your platform. SCORM 2004 is the latest version and is recommended by default if your LMS does not specify a particular version, as it ensures optimal communication between the authoring tool and the LMS.

      Select your LMS from the dropdown list. If it is not listed, choose “Unknown”.

      Define Success (SCORM 2004)

      This binary value indicates whether training is completed or not. Define it based on various parameters, such as progress or score.

      • “Define success by Progress”: Define success by progress when the participant reaches 100% completion.
      • “Define success by Score”: Use the final score achieved by the participant to determine success. Set a success threshold (default is 70%). If the participant does not reach this threshold, the training is not marked as completed.
      • “None”: When selected, do not send success information to the LMS.

      In SCORM 1.2, success is defined by progress.

      Define Score

      The score reflects the participant’s success rate in the training, calculated based on correct answers.

      • “Transmit mastery level if available”: Transmit the mastery level calculated from the learner’s responses. If no mastery is measurable, Teach Up will transmit a 100% score by default.
      • “Transmit 100%”: Teach Up will transmit a 100% score at the end of the activity.
      • “Do not transmit score”: No score will be sent to the LMS.

      Define Progress (SCORM 1.2)

      This option is specific to SCORM 1.2. Define the participant’s training status (Complete/Incomplete, Passed/Incomplete, Passed/Failed). Check your LMS documentation for the required value.

      Track data in the Teach Up dashboard

      Your Teach Up dashboard will display the expected information regardless of the distribution format. To identify a participant, the LMS can use their email or a SCORM ID. If this SCORM ID is not shared with Teach Up, the dashboard will only show the participant’s name and surname without their email.
