Add SCORM Courses to TrainerCentral

A SCORM course allows you to upload and deliver e-learning content created using external authoring tools. SCORM stands for Sharable Content Object Reference Model, a widely used standard that ensures learning content works seamlessly across different Learning Management Systems (LMS).

With a SCORM course, trainers can upload packaged learning materials, such as interactive lessons, quizzes, videos, and assessments, in a ZIP file format. Once uploaded, learners can access the course directly from the platform while their progress and completion data are tracked automatically.

TrainerCentral supports SCORM 2004 version.
