Hello,

We are investigating a solution for a customer and I couldn't find the perfect documentation to answer my own questions. So I'll try my luck here!

Is there a way to use and display the same Scorm package activity (with the suspend datas and progression for each user) in multiple courses?

I tried different ways described below but couldn't find a suitable one.

Thanks in advance for your answer,

Joyce

The tries:

Steps: 1) add a scorm package to a course, 2) add the same scorm to another course using the file structure in Totara

Result: progression is not passed form one to another

Steps : 1) add a scorm package to a course, 2) add a link to the scorm package from a course to another

Result: progression is at only a place but not suitable for a good LX

Steps: 1) Same than #1 but using repositories 2) select "Create an alias/shortcut to the file" 3) select "auto-update"

Result: same than #1 progression is not passed from one to another

Hi Joyce

The autupdate and alias update the SCORM package rather than the users who have enrolled in a course with the SCORM

I think that is why the users SCORM data for each course isn't copied the user data for each course is still separate.

One possible way is to have the course with the SCORM in it appearing in multiple programs - this way there is only one course and the progress is passed through to the program the user is enrolled in. Nor sure if this would work for you case but couldn't think of a way around this. Someone else may have some other ideas for a way around this.

regards

Hi,

I haven't tested this, but currently working on an integration via an external tool activity in T13.

Is it possible to have SCORM in one place & external tool activity in other places? Then the completion in one place would be passed to all other ones?

Best,
Vlad

Hi Vlad,

It would be wonderful! I'll let Craig answer your question.

But it seems it would be the same problem (you'd need to create your Scorm to multiple places on Totara where you'd like it to appear and the data would't be shared).

How and where would you add your Scorm and who would have these rights to add and connect this Scorm to your platform?

Would the external tool activity be the one keeping and transferring the completion datas?

Hi Craig,

Thanks for your answer.

So this seems indeed to be the only solution : to have only one Scorm so the data is kept. We still need to find a smart way to connect this Scorm to the whole picture.

However, we already discussed that with my team, and we can't go with "one scorm = one single-activity-course" for LX reasons (we are migrating an old LMS to Totara so we have... a lot of Scorm - thus it would be really hard to have one course per Scorm and maintain that).
