F.A.Q.

I received a “File type is not allowed” error message, what do I do?

Unzip the SCORM file, locate the file type that isn’t allowed (provided in the error message), delete the file, save, and rezip it. Take the updated file and upload it to ClearCompany Learning.

How can I unzip/rezip a SCORM file?

If you are not sure how to unzip a SCORM file, you need 1 single SCORM file:

1. Right-click on that file, and select Extract All.
2. Save the folder (unzipped file) somewhere you can access it.
3. Open that file, select all of the files, including the imsmanifest.xml file, and right-click again.
4. Select send to a compressed zip file. Take that new file and upload it either to ClearCompany Learning or to SCORM cloud to test it.

Who can bulk import SCORM learning objects?
