SCORM 1.2 combines the AICC API (Appendix B) specification for browser-parent frame communication with the IMS 1.1 (or 1.2) specification for content packaging.
 | SCORM is an initiative started by the US government | |
 | The US Army has a US$700 Million Request for Proposals for training | |
| All proposals to the US Army have to be SCORM conformant | |
| ADL (Advanced Distributed Learning) Co-Labs - developer of the SCORM standard | |
| One Lab in Virginia (military/corporate) and one in Madison, Wisconsin at the University of Wisconsin (academic) | |
| SCORM hosts "Plug-Fest"s where standards are discussed and products are presented | |

| Ideal of SCORM is to produce course content that is reusable | |
| You can take resources from several courses, and let the server put them together at delivery time | |
| Currently, this will create courses that look like a book made up of articles from multiple magazines just stapled together | |
