TrainCaster LMS™ Receives Certification as a SCORM 2004 Learning Management System.
TrainCaster LMS™ , the SCORM 2004 conformant learning management system, today announced that it is now an ADL Certified SCORM 2004 Learning Management System.
Boston, Mass. (PRWEB) October 14, 2005 -- TrainCaster™ Learning Management System today announced it has been certified as a SCORM 2004 LMS by the independent ADL Testing Center, Wisconsin Testing Lab. Product certification was the final step in a series to conform with the SCORM 2004 specifications.
The Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative, sponsored by the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), is a collaborative effort between government, industry and academia to establish a new distributed learning environment that permits the interoperability of learning tools and course content on a global scale. ADL's vision is to provide access to the highest quality education and training, tailored to individual needs, delivered cost-effectively anywhere and anytime. According to ADL, Certified Products are those products independently tested by ADL Certification Testing Centers to meet the requirements of the SCORM 2004 Conformance Test Suite.
"TrainCaster LMS™ continues to evolve to support the needs of our customer base As more and more organizations move toward implementing flexible, reusable learning modules, we are positioned to support delivery and tracking of these modules using SCORM specifications," stated Grace Sharp, director of TrainCaster LMS™ marketing. "SCORM 2004 is another tool to deliver, track and manage online training. We are extremely pleased that we are officially recognized as a SCORM 2004 certified product."
By following the SCORM 2004 standard for learning management software development, TrainCaster LMS gives its clients a method to reuse learning content, provide learners with a prescriptive training plan, and develop learning content using third party tools, such as Macromedia's Captivate. "Developing quality learning modules takes time and planning," noted Lynn Stockdale, executive Vice President of TrainCaster. "Implementing a SCORM 2004 course is no different in terms of development - its greatest impact is felt when the content can be repackaged for use to meet a different learning objective. That is the greatest benefit, and also the greatest challenge of SCORM 2004."
