I need your suggestions or work around for the below mentioned problem:
I have around 100 CBTs (Technical) which are published in a CD format and I dont have the source files with me.
Know I have a LMS which can host eLearning courses (AICC & SCORM compliant). I need to upload these courses in the LMS, but I cannot publish it, as I dont have the source files.
I have only the content which is in a CD format.
Please suggest how can I convert these CDs to SCORM or AICC zip file and upload it in my LMS?
It is very crucial for me as I have a target to convert them and upload them in my LMS.
I am not sure if this is possible, but what I would do is publish a file to lms and take all of the additional files from that and add to your cd version, you are going to have to at the very leaset manually edit the lmsmanifest.xml file, to add all your individual slide information. I have opened a manifest file for a 28 slide presentation with one engage and there are over 150 file locations/registrations that would need to be changed.
To be honest it is something I would not ever attempt to do.
If you dont have the source files, you may need to rebuild.
Also as you have published to CD the assets will be very large in size, last time I published to CD I had one slide that was 4mb I would not want load that over the internet for
I think this is the kind of thing our techies have done in the past. They often talk about creating SCORM wrappers for non-SCORM stuff, so maybe it is possible.

Thank you Phil.
I will try it.Rightly said, it is difficult to convert all 100 CDs. Tough time ahead for me.
Will bother you if not able to do a workaround which you have suggested.

If you PM some info I'll see what I can find out.

Here's a possible workaround... pretty cludgy and depending on how interactive your content is, it may not work. But...
