What does a company who themselves may refer to as an “Enterprise” really mean exactly? From a technology standpoint, it is a bit more clearer, but nowadays when a vendor says “Enterprise” they are not thinking from the technology standpoint. And again, the learning system vendor or e-learning provider?

Some vendors won’t use SCORM because it takes time to add and implement it. The idea was that you have content in SCORM and add it to your learning system that accepts SCORM, and tada, it works without any problems or issues. SCORM, or Shareable Content Object Reference Model, is a learning interoperability standard.
