PeopleSoft ELM and Captivate

[RegionRizer]

Does anyone have experience with uploading Captivate project to PeopleSoft.  Our PeopleSoft admistrator is telling that PeopleSoft is not remembering where the Learner has left off.  I have ensured that in Project -> Advanced Interaction all of the buttons on reach slide are being reported on.  PeopleSoft is not remembering where the Learner has left off.

Can anyone Help?

Thanks,

Bonnie

You do NOT have 'Never send resume data' checked, right?

One of Captivate's flaws is it doesn't set the cmi.exit parameter correctly. If it's meant to resume, it should set that parameter to 'suspend'. Technically, per SCORM, if the lesson doesn't set cmi.exit properly, the LMS should NOT give back resume data.... Few LMS products actually do this, so it's usually not a problem with Captivate...but if ELM is enforcing this and not giving the lesson back its suspend_data because the cmi.exit value isn't being set properly....it's really CP's fault....and unless there's a way to change that in the ELM LMS, there's probably nothing you can do about it (unless you can figure out how to make your CP lessons force the cmi.exit value to set correctly via custom code....?)

I'm not guaranteeing this is the problem, but could be likely. I'm sure your ELM admin would like it to be 😉
