Over the past three years, xAPI has emerged as the hot new standard for delivering online training. xAPI is often described as the next evolution of SCORM. While the SCORM standard isn’t going anywhere soon, xAPI has redefined some of the fundamental practices of tracking learning experiences. But what is xAPI?

The problem with committee work is well known; in this case vendors who participated wanted the standard to make it easy for their content to be made compliant. Vendors got on board, and SCORM became a more-or-less viable mechanism. ADL decided to create a new standard, the Experience API (xAPI; originally known as Tin Can).

Recently, we received an inquiry from someone who was trying to make sense of xAPI. Is xAPI installed on a platform? When it comes to how xAPI relates to platforms, xAPI is a communication and data model protocol specification that defines a Learning Record Store (or LRS). Can xAPI monitor device activity?

Now xAPI (Experience API), also known as Tin Can API, found its way into this list. Considering the significant benefits it offers, there is no surprise why everyone is going gaga over how xAPI can impact the online training landscape. Within a relatively short span of time, many vendors now offer varying degrees of support for xAPI.

It’s all too common to hear someone say “cmi5 is the bridge between SCORM and xAPI” around the office. xAPI came along and was designed to track all kinds of learning activities across different technologies that often sit outside of an LMS, like mobile apps, gaming, simulations, virtual reality and augmented reality.

Organizations generally prefer to outsource their LMS requirements to vendors or service providers, mainly because it saves them time and money and also because they do not have an in-house IT team to design, build and maintain a custom solution. This being said, how to choose the right LMS vendor for your organizational goals?

Vendors push it still for learning and training. It really makes no sense on why vendors still do this.

While many eLearning vendors still support AICC, the standard is usually a legacy of older platforms and businesses. Funnily enough, Tin Can (xAPI) , which we’ll examine next, adopts a similar approach to AICC regarding the HACP and, as a result, can track data across domains, or indeed, almost anywhere. eLearning now: Tin Can (xAPI).

That’s often a mistake. Many eLearning vendors create content that is not LMS-agnostic. Vendors whose eLearning content complies with all versions of industry standards and has been tested on multiple LMS platforms can escape many of these problems. AICC allows training vendors to license content that is housed on their own servers.

Even the learning platforms with conformant LRSs —ones that generate great xAPI data from non-xAPI content and the platform’s interactions—can have issues. For instance, they don’t generally allow you to send outside xAPI statements into the internal LRS, so you can only report on the data contained in that platform.
