WebCT Vista Platform Earns SCORM 1.2 Certification
WebCT's academic enterprise platform Vista earned SCORM 1.2 certification, the highest level of conformance with the Shareable Content Object Reference Model learning standard. The certification means the system interacts with advanced authoring tools and content. WebCT this week will demonstrate its SCORM 1.2 compliance at Plugfest 8, an event designed to refine the open architecture specification. Paul Jesukiewicz, director of the ADLCo-Lab for the SCORM initiative, called the WebCT certification an important step in "building a thriving e-learning community for vendor-neutral non-proprietary content sharing."
