Is there a difference between SCORM 1.2 and 2004 for our use case?

SCORM 2004 carries the run-time data model most modern LMSs prefer for compliance reporting. SCORM 1.2 is simpler and broadly compatible but reports a coarser completion signal. If your LMS supports both, SCORM 2004 is the recommended choice; we deliver either on request.

Does CBT Nuggets host the content or does our LMS host it?

The SCORM package is self-contained — your LMS hosts and serves the content directly. CBT Nuggets is not in the runtime path for SCORM-delivered training, which keeps your LMS as the single audit-of-record.

What it does

How the SCORM 2004 integration works

Every CBT Nuggets course can be exported as a SCORM 2004 package and imported into your LMS as a standalone training unit. Your LMS becomes the system of record for completion; CBT Nuggets is the content source.

SCORM 2004 (3rd and 4th Edition) carries richer run-time data than 1.2 — partial completion, sequenced multi-objective tracking, and the standardized `cmi.*` data model that modern LMS reporting expects.

Suitable for compliance-mandated training programs where the LMS is the audit-of-record (Cornerstone, Docebo, SAP SuccessFactors, Workday Learning, and any LMS with a SCORM 2004 import path).

SCORM 2004 export is an Enterprise-tier capability. Contact your CBT Nuggets customer success representative to request export packages for the courses you want to deliver through your LMS.
Receive your SCORM 2004 package
Your account team delivers a `.zip` SCORM 2004 manifest package per course. Each package is self-contained and can be uploaded to any SCORM 2004-compliant LMS.
