Issue with Articulate Storyline 360 and SABA LMS

Here is the problem/situation:

  • A customer uses our courses, consisting of two or more SCORM 1.2 module. The last module of a course is always the final quiz.
  • The course modules are set to "completed/incomplete" and the final quiz set to "passed/failed". For test purposes we also tried „completed/incomplete", but that leads to the same result which is also the problem.
  • Problem: In case the user doesn’t pass the final quiz or cancles the final quiz, SABA rates the entire course as "failed". On our own LMS (DOCEBO), the user can easily repeat canceled or failed final tests, because the LMS has the setting "unlimited attemtps". 
  • As far as I know, the LMS settings are responsible for this phenomenon and not the Storyline settings. 

My question: Is anyone familiar with this problem concerning SABA LMS? If so, did you find a solution for this? If so, in SABA LMS oder in Articulate Storyline?

(Please excuse my English; I am not a native speaker)

  • I'm thinking a quick fix would be to remove the test from the Storyline module and add a SABA test. The learner could complete the module and it would show as complete. Once they have completed the parts the test would generate, and they could take it as many times as your customer would like. This also gives your customer the ability to evaluate the test and see which questions the learner is failing. With this information your course could be updated to correct any failures rates.

      Although your answer is valid it reduces the use of Storyline in this scenario to an Powerpoint on steroids. If following your advice...it might be better to skip Storyline completely and build the whole course in SABA.

        Thank you Math for your reply and clear words. The path to go gets clearer.

    There is an Articulate User Group on the Cornerstone SBX/Saba Online Community which your customer may want to check out, to see if someone else has run into the issue.

      As Saba seems to be from the same company as Cornerstone ( thx to Josephs remark ), there might be a setting in Saba. As the same issue occurs in COD.. some setting in COD that needs to be activated before Scorm works properly. It might be there in Saba too.
