The Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) initiative of the Department of Defense finally had enough. The ADL provided compliance testing, so that content and systems could be validated for interoperability. ADL decided to create a new standard, the Experience API (xAPI; originally known as Tin Can). This doesn’t come free.

In this blog, we will delve into four widely recognized eLearning standards: SCORM, CMI5, AICC, and Tin Can (xAPI). SCORM is a collection of technical standards from the Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative (ADL) that enables users to track learner progress within an LMS course. What are SCORM & CMI5?

From early adopters who used archaic systems to set up a lesson that could be shared on one computer with an instructor to guide employees, to modern workplace learning that’s focused on xAPI -enabled mobile learning; eLearning at the workplace has traveled a long way. Why xAPI Matters? Here’s wherein xAPI plays a crucial role.
