What is Course Player?
Course Player enables you, online training and elearning professionals, to deliver SCORM-compliant courses on CD or SCORM-compliant courses using a static web server. That's right, you don't need any expensive Learning Management System (LMS) or Course Management System (CMS) to deliver SCORM courses anymore. All you need is Course Player! Course Player support the use content encryption (HTML only) to protect against unauthorised re-distribution of courses.
Course Player is the only tool training professionals need to delivery distance learning, online education, learning online courses, online training or eLearning. The same content can be delivered via the web or CD.
Course Player can deliver standard SCORM v1.2 complaint content, without any modification, immediately. You just need to expand the content (if it comes as a zipped package) into the specified directory. Course Player reads the imsmanifest file and generates the table of content and necessary navigation automatically.
Bundled SCORM Conversion Tools!
Convert standard HTML pages to fully SCORM compliant courses using Dreamweaver extensions bundled with Course Player professional. With the new tools you can batch process the addition of the SCORM runtime communication code and automatically generate the imsmanifest.xml file.
Why Course Player?
For courses with loads of multimedia, for learners who have poor internet connectivity or for those who prefer to study offline, Course Player provides a unique solution for delivering courses in CD format for your distance education or eLearning. For those concerned that their CD courses may be copied and further distributed without their knowledge, Course Protector can encrypt courses to thwart illegal copying of CDs. The encrypted course can be delivered by Course Player.
An online version of Course Player enables online training professionals, including teachers and trainers, to deliver online training without the need to invest in an expensive SCORM compliant Course Management System. Contact us for further details on using the Course Player online service.
Course Demonstrator is a great way of getting samples of your courses out there on CD for mass distribution. This is a great way to market your corporate training courses.
With Course Player, Course Demonstrator and Course Protector, you'll benefit from years of research and hands-on experience in learning object design, implementation and re-use. Course Player supports SCORM-SSS (SCORM with Style-Sheet Support) - an innovative scheme to lower the costs of re-use and course maintenance.
Why SCORM?
The Sharable Content Object Reference Model is by far the most widely accepted technical specification for content interoperability. This means there is a large quantity of SCORM compliant content that is commercially available and can be installed and run on many different course management systems with little or no further customisation. Add to this the ease with which standard HTML pages can be converted to SCORM (with Dreamweaver extensions), the convenience of Course Player for online and CD delivery of courses, Course Player's support of style-sheets and content encryption, and we think there is a winning combination.
