Complete SCORM Export Guide 2026: From Kriya Learn to Any LMS

You’re ready to deploy interactive training but you hit the final hurdle: SCORM export.

Will it work with your LMS? Will completion tracking actually trigger? Will mobile learners see broken layouts?

This guide removes SCORM export guesswork for Kriya Learn users. Whether you’re deploying on Cornerstone, Workday, Moodle, SAP Litmos, Docebo, or 50+ other LMS platforms, this is the exact process we’ve seen work reliably across real-world deployments.

Who This SCORM Guide Is For?

This guide is designed for:

• L&D teams exporting SCORM for the first time
• Training managers supporting multiple LMS platforms
• Organizations moving from static content to interactive learning
• Teams tired of re‑exporting packages and raising LMS support tickets

Why SCORM Export Matters More Than Ever in 2026

Despite newer standards, SCORM is still the backbone of corporate training delivery.

Based on internal deployment data, LMS documentation, and industry benchmarks:

• ~65% of corporate LMS platforms still rely on SCORM 1.2 or 2004
• Export issues commonly lead to:
• • 2–3 days lost re‑exporting and retesting packages
  • Incomplete or missing completion tracking
  • Emergency fixes that inflate vendor costs

In most real‑world deployments, clean SCORM export means:

• Accurate completion and score tracking
• Fewer LMS support tickets
• Faster rollouts across geographies and devices

Kriya Learn is built to generate SCORM packages that work consistently across modern and legacy LMS environments including mobile‑responsive layouts and learner interaction data.

Step 1: Prepare Your Module for Export (5 Minutes)

Before clicking Export, verify these three settings.

1. Completion Criteria

Set how the LMS should mark the course as complete:

Path: Module Settings → Completion

Recommended options:

• User completes 100% of content or
• User passes final assessment (80% score)

Save the setting before proceeding.

Why this matters: LMS platforms rely on this flag for compliance and reporting.

2. Assessment Tracking

Recommended configuration:

• Passing score: 80% (industry standard)
• Attempts allowed: Maximum 3
• Include assessment in completion: Yes

Why: Without this, many LMS platforms cannot record scores or completion correctly.

3. Mobile Preview (Critical)

Preview your module on:

• Desktop
• Tablet
• Mobile

Mobile layout issues remain one of the most common causes of post‑upload failures. Use Kriya Learn’s split‑screen preview to resolve layout and interaction issues before export.

Step 2: Choose the Right SCORM Version (30 Seconds)

SCORM 1.2 (Most Common)

• Works with most legacy and modern LMS platforms
• Supports completion and score tracking
• Safest option when LMS details are unclear

Common LMS examples:
Cornerstone, Moodle, Blackboard, older Workday setups

SCORM 2004 (Advanced Use Cases)

• Supports sequencing and navigation rules
• Useful for complex learning paths

Common LMS examples:
Docebo, SAP Litmos, newer Workday environments

Recommendation: If your LMS supports both, default to SCORM 1.2 unless you specifically require sequencing logic.

Kriya Learn default: SCORM 1.2 (can be changed during export)

Decision guide:

• LMS launched before 2024 → SCORM 1.2
• LMS launched after 2024 → SCORM 2004
• Unsure → SCORM 1.2

Step 3: Export the SCORM Package (2 Minutes)

Exact steps:

1. Module Dashboard → Select module
2. Click Export (top‑right)
3. Choose SCORM 1.2 or 2004
4. Name the package clearly (e.g., Cybersecurity_Training_v1.2)
5. Enable analytics (optional)
6. Click Generate Package
7. Download ZIP

Typical File Structure

module.zip

├── index.html

├── imsmanifest.xml

├── content/

├── data.js

└── README.txt

Step 4: Verify Before LMS Upload (5 Minutes)

Never skip validation.

Use SCORM Cloud (free tier available):

1. Upload the ZIP
2. Launch and complete the course
3. Verify:
4. • Status: Completed
   • Score: Recorded
   • Time: Logged

Red Flags to Fix First

• Status shows Incomplete → Check completion criteria
• Score shows N/A → Assessment not configured
• Time shows 00:00 → Tracking issue

Fix these before uploading to your LMS.

Step 5: LMS Upload & Common Issues (10 Minutes)

Step 6: Troubleshooting Fixes (Most Common)

1. Course stuck at 98% → Check completion trigger
2. Mobile layout broken → Re‑preview and re‑export
3. Quiz scores missing → Enable lesson score
4. LMS says not SCORM‑compliant → Validate in SCORM Cloud
5. Completion not firing → Add final completion action

Step 7: Advanced Features (Optional)

These features are optional and not required for standard LMS deployment.
