There are many benefits to using the SCORM Engine in your product, including:

• The fastest time to market.  Learning standards are complicated, and the effort that is required to create a conformant LMS system is measured in man-years. With the SCORM Engine, there is no need to read, re-read and comprehend 2200 pages of required specification manuals. This learning curve and development effort is virtually nonexistent when using the SCORM Engine. Our typical LMS conversion is completed in less than a month and generally involves only 2-3 days of development work.  [More]
• The most interoperable system.  True interoperability requires more than strict adherence to the standards. While the basics of SCORM are relatively simple, every vendor has slightly different interpretations which lead to subtle incompatibilities. Rustici Software has worked with dozens of vendors to eliminate these incompatibilities and ensure that the SCORM Engine is truly interoperable. The SCORM Engine includes years’ worth of tweaks and improvements designed to avoid the common bugs and pitfalls, while also accommodating all the common misinterpretations of the standards by other vendors.[More]
• The easiest maintenance.  Learning standards are constantly improving and evolving. In a period of 18 months following the publication of SCORM 2004, ADL issued 35 addenda and modified 61 conformance requirements. These changes, along with evolving interpretations, require constant vigilance and continued improvements to ensure that your system remains conformant. At Rustici Software, we constantly monitor these developments and keep our systems current with the latest industry developments.  [More]
• The most reliable code.  The SCORM Engine has been thoroughly tested and proven in many systems throughout the world. It has been formally certified by ADL at the highest levels of conformance for both SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004. The SCORM Engine is very scalable; one of our larger clients uses it in an LMS that tracks over 1.1 million users and routinely processes over 30,000 course completions per day. The SCORM Engine’s architecture supports a variety of deployment scenarios involving web farms and content delivery networks to ensure that your system can grow with your needs.  [More]
• The best learning experience.  SCORM is a great standard for interoperability, but it stops short of defining best practices that ensure an effective learning experience. The SCORM Engine includes a variety of features designed to enhance the usability of SCORM courseware. Features such as a real-time look-ahead sequencer ensure the learner always knows what navigation options are available. A client-side sequencing engine and an asynchronous commit mechanism also ensure that the learner experience is unaffected by network delays.  [More]
