Mohive Launches “100% E-Learning Content Tracking Guarantee” Program

25/3/2006—Oslo, Norway—Mohive, a leader in e-learning publishing systems, today announced their “100% E-Learning Content Tracking Guarantee” program. The program guarantees that all e-learning content created in Mohive Toolbox will track all relevant data in a company’s Learning Management System (LMS).

Saba’s Learning Management System is the first system to qualify for the guarantee. This means that all e-learning content created in Mohive Toolbox will be 100% track-able in Saba’s LMS. Mohive Toolbox, Mohive’s enterprise e-learning publishing system, is an enterprise software system that enables organisations to efficiently create and publish e-learning content.

“Mohive Toolbox’s workflow-driven approach not only applies to the planning, authoring and reviewing aspects of the e-learning content creation process, but also to publishing. With this guarantee, it means that all Saba customers can have all their content fully track-able in their LMS, out of the box” said Lars Unneberg, Mohive CEO. “We chose to guarantee Saba first because of the tight relationship between our two companies, especially in the European marketplace.”

Mohive and Saba will be hosting a joint webcast on Compliance Learning Solutions on March 28. More: http://www.mohive.com/en/webcast0603-compliance-saba.html

“We have added an extra layer of integration into Learning Management Systems because we feel the current SCORM standard allows too much room for interpretation. We created a plug in framework that allows us to create LMS-specific interfaces that addresses these interpretations, thereby making content created in Mohive Toolbox 100% track-able,” added Lars Andreas Aas, Mohive CTO.

Technology behind the guarantee:
Mohive has created a three-tiered interaction approach that enables e-learning content creators to be sure all aspects of course will track in their Saba LMS. The three tiers include:

• A plug in framework that delivers LMS-specific interfaces
• An authoring framework that provides tracking-compliant templates
• A web-services framework that allows for deeper integration into the LMS

Plug in framework – Mohive’s LMS-specific plug-in framework provides an interface between Mohive Toolbox content and an LMS. The LMS-specific plug-in addresses the SCORM “Interpretation” issue, ensuring that all content created in Toolbox is fully track-able.

Authoring framework – Mohive Toolbox’s authoring framework enables Subject Matter Experts to create interactive, engaging content that automatically adheres to the SCORM standard. Mohive Toolbox provides the author with “templates” that enable them to create a variety of interactive frames, while ensuring the final output is 100% SCORM compliant.

Web services framework – Mohive Toolbox includes a web services framework that allows for a deeper integration into the LMS and other enterprise systems. For Saba customers, this means (for example), content created in Mohive Toolbox can be directly deposited into Saba’s learning repository. Additionally, authors can access various media elements (such as images, videos, sounds) in their Saba Learning Content Management System, directly from Mohive Toolbox.
