In case you haven\u2019t\u2026 we\u2019ll make things clearer for you! The word \u2018SCORM\u2019 may not offer much of an explanation as to what it really is, so let\u2019s break it down a bit. The \u2018S\u2019 stands for \u2018sharable\u2019, which implies that the information can be accessed easily by different people over different platforms. \u2018CO\u2019 stands for \u2018content object\u2019, that speaks about the presence of different courses and documents within the e-learning platform. Lastly, \u2018RM\u2019 is \u2018reference model\u2019 that refers to the information that the developers require to ensure that the courses and the systems on which they are run use the same format.<\/p>\n

To make it all the more easier, let’s put it this way! SCORM<\/a> is nothing but a set of standards that make the two i.e. the courses and the course-carrier LMS compatible with each other. It is more or less the same way the bulb and a socket are compatible, i.e. they fit the same standards. You\u2019ve to imagine the LMS as a socket, in which, if the course contents need to be fit in, they should be compatible.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css_animation=””][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

SCORM has come a Long Way!<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Since its day of release, 4 different SCORM versions have seen the light of the day. All the succeeding features differed from each other in the number of features provided. There are many versions of SCORM in use today. The 1.2 version of SCORM is widely used even today and is supported by most of the LMS platforms. SCORM 2004<\/a> is another majorly used version, which is slowly getting superseded by Tin Can.<\/p>\n
