A custom training application or portal can access Adobe® Connect™ Training
to display training courses that are available, enroll users or
allow them to self-enroll, list all courses and curriculums the
user is enrolled in, and generate various reports. Adobe Connect
Training has two types of training modules: courses and curriculums.
A
course
is
content (for example, a presentation) that has a set of enrolled
learners with usage tracking for each individual. The course can
be delivered and administered independently or as part of a curriculum.
A
curriculum
is
a group of courses and other learning content that moves students
along a learning path. A curriculum contains primarily Adobe Connect Training
courses, but may include other items such as content and meetings.
As with courses, you can generate reports to track the progress
of enrolled learners as they move through the curriculum. This way,
you can ensure that enrollees meet the learning objectives.
Courses and content can both be modules within a curriculum,
and a content object can be used in any number of courses and curriculums.
In Adobe Connect Training, content objects, courses, and curriculums
are all SCOs, and each has a unique
sco-id
. Content
objects and courses are combinable and reusable, according to the
SCORM standard.
As you develop training
applications, Adobe recommends that you use the following XML API
actions:
-
permissions-update
-
To
enroll users in courses and make sure they have the appropriate
permissions to access the course.
-
group-membership-update
-
To add users to groups if
you want to enroll a group.
-
report-my-training
-
To list all courses and curriculums
the current user is enrolled in, including the URL to access the
course or curriculum.
-
report-curriculum-taker
-
To get details of a user’s
progress within a curriculum.
-
report-user-trainings-taken
-
To view the latest status
of all of a user’s courses and curriculums.
-
report-user-training-transcripts
-
To list all of a user’s transcripts
and scores.
These actions work on courses, curriculums, and
training folders and use the permissions allowed for objects in
the Training library.
