Description

The GrassBlade add-on adds native support for SCORM, xAPI (Tin Can), and AICC packages to LearnDash, allowing you to load interactive content like lessons and capture progress, scoring, and completion data directly in the LMS reports. Built for teams that produce corporate training and certified courses using external authoring tools, the extension converts each submitted package into a trackable lesson, integrated into the native flow of lessons, quizzes, and learner progress.

Key Features

  • SCORM and xAPI Support
    Accepts upload of SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, and xAPI (Tin Can) packages as LearnDash lessons.
  • Learner Progress Tracking
    Records status, score, and completion time for each student in the LMS dashboard.
  • Integration with an External LRS
    Sends activity statements to a Learning Record Store via a configurable xAPI API.
  • AICC Compatibility
    Imports legacy AICC packages produced in older authoring tools without manual conversion.
  • Completion Synced with the Lesson
    Uses the score returned by the package to unlock the next lesson and mark the lesson as completed.

GrassBlade Benefits

  • Leverage Existing Content
    Reuses ready-made packages from Articulate Storyline, Adobe Captivate, and iSpring without redoing them in the editor.
  • Compliance with e-learning Standards
    Keeps adherence to the formats required by corporate training programs and certifications.
  • Unified Reporting in LearnDash
    Centralizes performance for imported and native content in the same learner progress dashboard.
  • Scales for Corporate Programs
    Supports large training libraries with completion auditing and user history.

Who Is It For?

  • T&D and HR departments that maintain corporate training tracks in LearnDash.
  • Instructional designers who produce content in Articulate Storyline, Adobe Captivate, or iSpring.
  • Schools, universities, and institutions that need to import SCORM and AICC packages into the LMS.

Designed for corporate education teams and institutions that rely on open e-learning standards, the extension fills the gap between professional authoring tools and LearnDash, without requiring custom development. The result is an LMS capable of hosting entire libraries of SCORM and xAPI trainings with the same course experience as content created natively in WordPress.
