Important Note: Microsoft Teams loads apps (including Shrewd LMS) as embedded tab content in an iframe. Because of this, SCORM packages that are configured to open content in a new browser window will not work reliably inside Teams. Teams does not support forcing iframe content to open an external window as part of app/tab behaviour, and popups or new-window launches from within an embedded frame are generally restricted for security and platform reasons. To ensure SCORM content launches correctly in Shrewd LMS, please make sure the package is published to open in the same window.

Follow the steps below to create a SCORM activity:

1. Input the activity Title.
2. Upload SCORM File by clicking “Browse” or drag-and-drop your .zip file into the SCORM Content field.
3. Set the passing score for students (Optional).
4. Specify whether a score below the passing threshold will mark the activity progress (in Activity Completion report) as Completed or Incomplete (Optional).
5. Add Description (Optional).
6. Click “Save” or “Update” to finalize.
