You can upload a SCORM learning package from another vendor and use it within Skillcast as part of a learning path. This allows you to centralise your training content while maintaining tracking and reporting.
This guide takes you through how to upload, configure, test, and manage SCORM files, including multiple language versions.
How to upload and configure a SCORM file
Follow these steps to add your SCORM package to a learning path:
Upload your SCORM file as a ZIP file or Package Interchange File (PIF).
Go to File Exchange and upload your SCORM package so it is available for selection laterCreate a learning path. After creating the learning path, you will be taken to the properties page
Select Edit Content
Under Add a new activity, select E-learning
Scroll to the File exchange dropdown, select your uploaded SCORM file and select Add to attach it to the learning path
Ensure you test to confirm the SCORM is working correctly
How to upload SCORM files in multiple languages
If your SCORM package has multiple language versions, you can upload them into the same learning path by repeating part of the process for each language.
Upload the first language version - follow the full process above to upload your primary SCORM file in English
Set the portal language to match the language of the next SCORM file you plan to upload. You can find the language selector at the top right of the portal.
Select Edit beside the activity you just uploaded and repeat step 5 above
Repeat the same steps for each language version you need to upload
Keep all versions within the same learning path. This ensures users automatically see the version that matches their selected portal language
How to test your SCORM file
Testing helps ensure that your SCORM works correctly before assigning it to users.
Select View as learner from the learning path sidebar
Assign the learning path to yourself or a pilot group
Test progress tracking
Start the module and complete part of it
Close the module and reopen it to confirm progress is savedTest completion behaviour
Complete the module
If possible, deliberately fail an assessment to check trackingCheck training records
Review the learner's record to confirm completion statusCheck scoring
If applicable, verify that scores are recorded correctly
Tips for best results
Test every SCORM file before rollout
Use clear naming conventions to support reporting
Upload all language versions consistently using the same learning path
Verify both progress tracking and completion status
Limitations
SCORM behaviour depends on how the file was created by the third-party provider
Some tracking or scoring issues may occur if the SCORM is not configured correctly
Each language version must be uploaded manually by switching the portal language and repeating the setup steps
Conclusion
You've now learned how to upload, configure, and test a third-party SCORM file, including how to manage multiple language versions within the same learning path.
