What is the Administrate LMS?
The Administrate LMS delivers learning content to learners through the Student Portal. It allows learners to launch training content and enables Administrate to track learning progress, completion status, and assessment results.
The LMS works with several types of learning content including:
- SCORM packages
- videos
- documents
- audio files
- native exams
- external web links
To take full advantage of progress tracking and scoring, learning content should typically be authored as SCORM packages using tools such as Articulate Storyline, Adobe Captivate, or similar authoring software.
Where do learners access learning content?
Learners access their assigned learning content from the Student Portal after they have booked or enrolled on a course or learning path that contains online components.
When a learner opens a learning item, the content launches within the portal or in a new browser window depending on LMS configuration.
For non-SCORM content such as documents, learners must have the appropriate software installed on their device (for example, a PDF reader for PDF files) to open the file.
Which SCORM versions are supported?
The Administrate LMS supports the following SCORM standards:
- SCORM 1.2
- SCORM 2004
SCORM 1.2 is the most widely used format and is generally recommended for compatibility across authoring tools.
SCORM content authored using modern HTML5 standards will work across most devices, including mobile. Legacy Flash-based content is not supported on many modern devices and should be avoided.
Why is my SCORM module not marking complete?
Completion behavior is controlled by the SCORM package itself. If the content does not send a completion or pass signal to the LMS, the learner will remain in an In Progress state.
Review the reporting settings in your SCORM authoring tool and ensure completion is triggered when the learner reaches the end of the module.
Why are scores not showing?
If quiz scores are not appearing in the LMS, the SCORM package may not be sending score data. Confirm that your authoring tool is configured to report scores using the standard SCORM score fields.
Can I track progress for videos or documents?
Unlike SCORM packages, most static content types such as documents or audio files do not report completion or scoring information.
Video files can report viewing progress if a completion percentage is configured. If no completion threshold is defined in the SCORM package, learners must typically watch 100% of the video for it to be marked as complete.
Other content types will typically show only that the item has been opened.
