Import SCORM packages as lesson slides

Learn how to import SCORM packages as lesson slides via the web app.

What are SCORM packages?

In e-learning or training, SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference Model) is a popular standard for creating and delivering digital learning content. It specifies how e-learning content should be structured and packaged, allowing for compatibility with learning management systems (LMS) or learning content management systems (LCMS).

We understand that some organizations may already have existing LMS that facilitate training, so to make it easier for you to reuse existing content, you can easily import SCORM packages as lesson slides in your SafetyCulture courses.

Although you can import SCORM packages, we recommend creating and editing lesson slides directly within SafetyCulture, where possible, to provide your teams with the best training experience.

Import a SCORM package as a lesson slide

  1. Log in to the web app.

  2. Select Training iconTraining from the menu on the left-hand side.

  3. If you're on the "Learn" page, click Content at the top of the page and select Courses.

  4. Hover your cursor over the course and click View or Edit.

  5. If you're editing an existing course and it's published, click Pencil iconEdit on the upper-right of the page.

  6. Create a new standard lesson or click an existing one.

  7. In the left-hand side panel, click Plus (filled) iconNew slide.

  8. In the pop-up window, select Lightning (advanced) iconAdvanced under "MORE" and click SCORM. Import a SCORM package as a lesson slide via the web app.

  9. In the right-hand side panel, upload your SCORM package, then configure the slide accordingly.

Please note that the training course experience on the mobile app may be suboptimal if a SCORM content wasn't built to support mobile screens.

If your course is currently a draft, remember to publish it to make your changes available to your team.

Limitations

  • Scoring within SCORM is not recorded as part of course scoring.

  • Performance dashboard by course slides is not available to SCORM lesson slides.

If you want to export a SafetyCulture lesson as a SCORM-compliant package, please contact our customer support team for assistance.
