# SCORM

LightSpeed VT uses the SCORM engine from SCORM.com and thus supports all versions of SCORM. A full list of the versions of SCORM can be found here:

:::(Internal) (Private notes)
### Notes about your SCORM formatted course:
 
 * A SCORM package needs to have a *imsmanifest.xml* file which describes the course and its content.
 * A xAPI package needs to have a *tincan.xml* file and needs to send xAPI statements to the SCORM Cloud Learning Record Store.
 * An AICC package needs to be zipped up with the 4 AICC descriptor files (AU, CRS, CST, & DES).
 * A cmi5 package must include a ‘cmi5.xml’ file which includes a list of assignable units (AU) which when launched will communicate with the SCORM Cloud Learning Record Store via xAPI.
:::

## Add your SCORM Course:
1. Create a **New Course** (*Learn how: [Legacy](/v1/docs/create-course) /  [New Course Editor](/docs/create-edit-course-vcm)*)
2. Change the Course Type to **SCORM**.
3. Upload your zipped SCORM file to the Media Library, or paste the SCORM Cloud Course ID (if you're hosting the course yourself).
4. Configure the SCORM settings as needed:
    * **Score By:** Select how the Course is scored;
      * Success or Completion _(Default)_
      * Success
      * Completion
    * **Open SCORM:** Determine how the SCORM Course will be launched:
      * **Inline (Embedded)** will open the SCORM Course directly within the Training Center.
      * **In a New Window** will launch the SCORM Course in a separate popup window.
    * **New Window Size:** If opening the SCORM In a New Window, choose the window size.
5. Then be sure to complete all the required fields and additional details to provide Learners with helpful information.
