Low Cost, Open Source and SCORM - eLearning Learning

SEPTEMBER 21, 2022

You’ve heard it before – “We’re not rich enough to buy cheap things” – Meaning that low-cost products are likely to break or need replacing, so buying one high-quality, long-lasting item is a better investment. So why do low-cost LMSs end up more expensive in the long run?

If you are thinking of Scorm creation, I would recommend building on PowerPoint and using an add-in to convert to basic SCORM. If you can afford it though, Articulate and Captivate are spectacular for authoring.
