SCORM Packages — Concept

If you already have e-learning content built in another authoring tool, you don't have to rebuild it inside BLUERABBIT from scratch. The SCORM Package step type runs it inside a milestone.

What SCORM Is

SCORM is a long-standing e-learning packaging standard. Most authoring tools (Articulate, Captivate and similar) can export a course as a SCORM package: a single .zip file. BLUERABBIT supports SCORM 1.2. A SCORM step plays the package in a frame inside the step and listens for it to report that it's finished.

What You Get

What It Doesn't Track

BLUERABBIT records whether the package finished, not how well. A score the package reports isn't stored, and a package that reports "failed" leaves the step open until the player gets through it. If the grade matters, follow the package with a Challenge that tests the same material.

Storage

A package counts toward the storage allowance of the account that uploads it: the size of the .zip, not the unpacked size. See Billing & Plans.

When to Reach for It

Use SCORM when strong content already exists and rebuilding it natively would be pure duplicated effort: a compliance course, a vendor-provided training module. For anything you're building fresh, native steps (Dialogue, Open Text, Multiple Choice and the rest) are usually a better fit, and give you BLUERABBIT's own reward and branching tools directly.
