Manager: Activities > SCORM and AICC Guidance

Note: SCORM Content is designed for eLearning, and there are several SCORM authoring tools that work well with Alchemy’s eLearning website. This includes the AICC format that LinkedIn Learning uses.  To see if your SCORM tool works with Alchemy’s eLearning platform, review the requirements below and use cloud.scorm.com to test your final product. Most SCORM authoring tools free trial periods of 30 days or more, and Alchemy recommends using a trial version to test out a tool before making a financial commitment.
