What is Scorm?

SCORM, which stands for Sharable Content Object Reference Model, is a set of technical standards for eLearning software products. SCORM files are a way to share their training and learning material with the students.

At CourseCo, we allow our Admins to upload and share Scorm content with their students for training and learning purposes.

Note: Scorm Integration is a custom feature. Please contact your Project CRM Lead for a demo and installation.

Editing your scorm files with a redirect back to CourseCo

Your students have completed all the content in the scorm i.e. come to the end. What next, how do they know how press ESC / navigate back to the CourseCo student portal window to eg Complete their exam.

Within Scorm, you can now add a CourseCo script eg add a button with a redirect behind it. This will aid students who may not understand how to navigate back/ out of Scorm content .

Open your 3rd Party scorm file.
Go to eg the last section.
add a button eg ‘Continue to Exam’
Behind the button add the below script - Within your scorm this would be called "click handler"

if(window.top.API) {
  window.top.API.openNext();
} else {
  if(window.top.opener.API) {
    window.top.opener.API.openNext();
  } else {
    console.log("API not found");
  }
}

Once this is installed, when the student selects the button they will exit fullscreen and automatically it will open next content of the course.
