The Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) kicked off in 2001 and the Aviation Industry CBT Committee with Computer Managed Instruction (AICC - CMI) in 1993. An enormous number of things have been built with SCORM and AICC, which have shaped many of the tools traditionally used for by learning departments. This is why the collaboration announced recently between ADL and AICC on Tin Can is such a huge deal. MORE

SCORM (Shareable Content Object Reference Model): A set of standards developed by Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) and applied when developing LMS content. Once a specification has been recognized by an official body, it becomes a standard, like AICC , SCORM or Tin Can xAPI. MORE

We are developing a SCORM or AICC compliant course either custom or using an authoring tool. Here are some ideas - SCORM Test Suite One of the best things about SCORM (ADL's Sharable Content Reference Model) is that it is pretty easy to test and diagnose problems. My first piece of advice for anyone developing a course is to make sure it runs with the ADL's test suite because that gives you cover in case there are issues. MORE

ADL (Advanced Distributed Learning): An initiative established by the US Department Of Defense in 1999, aiming to make the delivery of online training consistent across content formats, technologies, and organizations. MORE

One of the most interesting items which presents to me an unknown variable is CMI-5, a compliance standard (formally with AICC) now headed up by ADL. Welcome to the new year, which means a lot of people telling you, “Happy New Year”, so rather, I will say, “Greetings and salutations. This is going to be an awesome new year for e-learning.” ” Okay, with that out of the way, let’s get right down to the forecasts for 2015. Calculations. MORE

The US Department Of Defense (DoD) and Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) decided to combine their collective experience on the subject, under an initiative issued by President Bill Clinton no less. AICC (Aviation Industry Computer-Based-Training Committee) deserves a mention too. MORE

AICC goes after the same thing as what I've described above for SCORM (tracking under an LMS). There are a bunch of other standards by ADL (who is responsible for SCORM ), IMS , IEEE LTSC including CORDRAâ„¢ , LOM , Meta-data , etc. Note: ARIADNE, AICC, IEEE LTSC, and IMS all participate in ADL's work on SCORM). Now that I posted about Better Questions for Learning Professionals , I've been receiving questions via email from a variety of people. That's great! MORE

The Benefits of Making Your e-Learning AICC and SCORM Compliant . To solve this problem, in 1999 the government tasked a small research laboratory, ADL, to “develop common specifications and standards for e-learning.” SCORM versus AICC. MORE

If you have ever been involved in online course design and development, you might have come across e-learning professionals talking about AICC and SCORM. What are SCORM and AICC? Likewise, online courses that comply with AICC can be hosted on any AICC-compliant LMS. MORE

RoboNekp, or perhaps more likely, Rob on NKP , has published this c omparison of the two main standards, SCORM and AICC , which finally clarifies a couple of points that I've wondered about. If only the introduction to SCORM in the ADL documentation was as clear, or that the tiresome series I read last year in one of the print journals that laboured the idea that SCORM was internet dating for lonely hearts learning (or something) had simply never been written.

Originally developed by Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL), an initiative of the Unite States Department of Defense, SCORM was designed to standardize and modernize their training courses. MORE

1988: Aviation Industry CBT Committee (AICC) was formed to standardize CBT – The AICC was an international group of aircraft manufacturers, instructors, courseware developers, vendors etc, who came together to standardize the delivery of eLearning content for the aviation industry. MORE

For example, different groups such as the Aircraft Industry CBT Committee (AICC), Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, (IEEE), IMS Global Learning Consortium and the Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative (ADL) have developed specifications for the packaging and delivery of training content so that it is more independent and transportable. The Building Blocks of a Successful e-Training Program. By Ed Gipple. MORE

CMI-5 and XAPI (Tin Can API), Bill McDonald , Kris Rockwell It took me a while to figure the meaning of TinCan and I understood the impact it can have on our learning community, but I never understood why we have two competing standards (Scorm and AICC), and now there is a new standard emerging CMI-5 based on TinCan. The AICC developed in the early 1990 the AICC standard. Later on the ADL was formed and they wanted a more extended standard, based on the AICC specs. MORE

ADL and AICC will play a role moving forward. Adobe Learning Summit I finally have an opportunity to sit and live blog. yes Mark, I know living blogging is soooo 90's ;-)] I'm sitting in the Friday morning session of the Adobe eLearning Summit. MORE

So I researched but quickly got lost in the minutia of details and acronyms -- AICC, CMI, SCO, XML, ECMAScript, manifest, packaging, and API. On top of that, I found out about the ADL initiative and the Department of Defense involvement in the specification. By Jonathan Shoaf. MORE

CourseLab – ADL SCORM certified, no less. PENS was created in 2005 by AICC as a new interoperability standard. Same issue if your product outputs to only AICC, and my LMS vendor does not accept the AICC interoperability standard.

ve ever met anyone, outside the DOD / ADL who doesn???t t think SCORM and AICC are over engineered pieces of junk. I recently posted about the SCORM 2.0 Call for Papers and how I feel this is a very important moment for SCORM and that I think it would be great if the papers came back with big,hairy audacious goals that really sought to move the industry forward and so forth. MORE

Or are you just confused by all the abbreviations like: SCORM, AICC, XAPI, and CMI5? A course is SCORM compliant when it meets the requirements of the standard set by the ADL. It comes from the aviation industry and it is called AICC. MORE

As ADL have taken over the cmi5 specification there is a suggestion that this will prompt further evolution. With cmi5, ADL are writing the packaging and structuring specification that xAPI failed to deliver. SCORM has long been the most common standard for eLearning content. MORE

And with ADL and AICC announcing their collaboration on Tin Can API as the NEW eLearning standard, Tin Can (also called Experience API) will only become more of a standard. We had a great time at DevLearn 2012 in Las Vegas. MORE

ADL SCORM 2004 CERTIFIED. Also SCORM 1.2 & AICC. The end of the year is here, okay in just a few short weeks, but for those on vacation, the festivities have already began.

The AICC is dissolved, but having an LMS that supports AICC is still crucial. These universal specifications set forth by the AICC soon reached far beyond the aviation community and into the corporate training world, making AICC the first elearning standard in the world. MORE

It all started with the Aviation Industry Computer-Based Training Committee (AICC), which was formed in 1988. In 1993, the AICC created the CMI specification—still in use today—which specified the communications between a course and an LMS. MORE

The Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative (ADL) answered the call, and developed the Sharable Content Object Reference Model, more conveniently known as SCORM. The ADL has emerged once more to steward in the new age of eLearning specification. MORE

eLearning past: AICC. On day one of our series, we learned that AICC (Aviation Industry Computer-Based-Training Committee) can be considered the first eLearning standard, used to track how learners progress through course content. MORE

eLearning can be a needlessly complicated subject. As mentioned in a previous post , buzzwords and acronyms are frequently used. We thought that it would be a great resource for both those new to and those well versed in the eLearning industry to provide a comprehensive list of acronyms. MORE
