The Solution:
Tracker.Net implements all mandatory and optional communication elements listed in the SCORM 1.2 and 2004 Runtime Environment Specification. Rather than messing with SCORM manifest files, you use Tracker.Net's Administrator interface to define lesson locations, organize lessons into courses, set passing scores, and more. You can even set lesson and course completion status via the Administrator in addition to having it set automatically via SCORM. Tracker.Net manages ToolBook HTML, Flash, Dreamweaver, Lectora, Captivate, ASP.NET, and any other content that can communicate via SCORM.

Web Server

Comments

Everyone loves the Tracker.Net interface and functionality. I re-purposed two courses and put them up there for test driving and so far so good.
-
I am totally confident in your system - and what you say it will do. The real key that I really emphasized with my boss is that I told him - that I would be completely confident in your technical support (if we need it) for this system.
-
You'll be (not surprised but) happy to hear that your installation of Tracker.Net on my machine went as slick as the proverbial whistle.
-
We've been using Tracker.Net for about 6 months now to administer training to about 300 flight crew in an airline in Ireland. We've installed the LMS on their local server and we service our SCOs remotely from the UK. The system works extremely well.
-
We are using Tracker.Net for healthcare workers following ToolBook courses and it seems to have great potential.

You have done a fantastic job on this LMS. The more I use it the more I like it! It's by far and away the easiest to use LMS I've ever seen and your SCORM support is very comprehensive. I think your decision to not use the manifest files really simplifies things as well, as in the past the manifest has caused the most grief.
