Elearning Formats

Elearning content must be uploaded as a .zip file through the E-Learning upload option. The following formats are supported:

  • SCORM 1.2

  • TinCan (xAPI)

  • CMI5

  • SCORM 2004 (all editions)

HTML5 content can be uploaded either as elearning (for example, SCORM or CMI5) or as a plain HTML webpage within a zip file, with no progress tracking.

Note:

The Thrive platform only supports single Shareable Content Object (SCO) formatted SCORM packages. Multi-SCO SCORM packages fail to upload.
