Using Clarity PPM Self-Paced, Computer Based Training
No server is needed for customers choosing to have Digital Celerity host their Self-Paced Training courses. Students simply connect to the courses through Digital Celerity’s Learning Management System (LMS) via the internet. For customers choosing to host their Clarity PPM Self Paced Training courses, the courses can be deployed on a Learning Management System (LMS) that is SCORM 1.2 compliant.

SCORM Compliant for Learning Management Systems
There are many vendor specific and homegrown Learning Management Systems in use throughout the world. What ensures that Clarity PPM Self Paced Training courses are compatible with a customer’s Learning Management System is an industry standard known as SCORM. DC’s courses are SCORM 1.2 compliant, which means that any Learning Management System that is SCORM 1.2 compliant can run DC’s courses. DC does not provide instructions on how to deploy its courses on customer Learning Management Systems because they are all different. Typically, customers who have Learning Management Systems also have administrators of the Learning Management Systems who are responsible for loading the Clarity courses onto their systems. In the event that they require assistance, DC will provide the help needed to get the courses to work properly.
For more information on SCORM, please go to the Advanced Distributed Learning organization that sets SCORM standards: Click here for more on SCORM Standards.
Clarity PPM Self-Paced, Computer Based Training Packages - Deliverables
When you purchase a Clarity PPM Self-Paced Training Course from Digital Celerity, you receive a perpetual license for the course or courses selected, for a specific number of named users. Courses are delivered in the form of a .ZIP file that contains a Clarity PPM SCORM package. A SCORM package is a series of related files that together can be deployed as a Clarity PPM Self-Paced Training course on a Learning Management System. It is important to know that the SCORM compliant version is not executable by itself, and cannot run directly from the CD-ROM. It must be loaded onto a Learning Management System to run. The .ZIP file will be delivered to the customer via CD-ROM. Non-SCORM compliant packages available upon request, can be downloaded to run on your training server, and will run directly from CD-ROM.
