What SCORM Cloud LRS is
SCORM Cloud LRS captures xAPI statements from online activities and in-person learning experiences. It has passed the ADL LRS Test Suite and can accept externally generated xAPI statements without charging by statement volume. Users can configure activity providers to forward statements to other LRSs. The SCORM Cloud player supports xAPI, cmi5, SCORM, and AICC content, and the service can convert SCORM and AICC registration data into xAPI statements stored in the LRS. An API lets other applications integrate course hosting, delivery, learner tracking, and reporting. The service runs in the cloud and is available through web and API platforms. Its free Trial is not time-limited, but is restricted to 3 courses, 5GB of storage, and 10 active resettable registrations. Paid plans start with Tester at $40 a month; higher listed options range through Ultra at $5,000 a month, with registration allowances varying by plan. Rustici offers support by phone, email, and Knowledge Base. The company says SCORM Cloud is ISO-27001-certified and describes restricted and audited administrative access to its infrastructure.
