I am creating a SCORM compliant training. The training has a final test. Do you have to click any buttons to submit this final test? I have it setup as a graded test. I just want to make sure when we put it into our LMS it is recording the final test score.
Hi Lora. I'm no LMS expert, but in my case the scores are sent to the LMS when the e-learning is closed.Not sure if this is common though.
As Ashley says above, if you don't have a results slide there will be no info to send in the first place, and you can customise the results slide to show the user only what information you want.
Best bet is to set up some test users and try it out first.
Thank you. I did find the tutorial which provided me with setting up the questions with a result file. I think that answers it but i wasnt sure if you had to have a button to close out of the training, so it would record. Does anyone know that?
No special "exit" button is needed - but you could add one if you felt like your users might be confused,, although there are some known conditions which could cause the exit trigger to not work correctly which may cause more confusion.
Just to clarify my post, when the WINDOW my e-learning is in is closed (I always have it pop up in a new window), the data is sent to my LMS. I don't use an exit button, but as described in Ashley's link an exit button may not always react how you expect.
I have tried using lightboxes for e-learning, but had lots of issues with learners getting impatient waiting for test scores to be processed by the LMS and closing the entire browser, hence I use pop up windows.

Hi Lora,
You'll want to also include a results slide and set that as your tracking requirement when publishing for LMS:
