One year ago, we kicked off a project with ADL to develop tools and resources to help accelerate the adoption of cmi5 , and ultimately xAPI, within both the DoD and across the industry as a whole. The cmi5 spec is an xAPI Profile designed for tracking xAPI enabled learning activities from an LMS.

It’s all too common to hear someone say “cmi5 is the bridge between SCORM and xAPI” around the office. No matter which DVD you buy, it’ll play in your DVD player at home; you don’t need different players to watch different DVDs. Behold: cmi5, which provides a way to move from SCORM to the more modern xAPI specification.

For the last 18 years, some of the most important work we’ve done at Rustici Software has been the standards-based efforts we’ve worked on with the Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative (ADL). This initiative will remove the barrier to entry and obstacles that the DoD and many organizations face when adopting xAPI and cmi5.
