LEADERBOARD x DASHBOARD
Hi parca in a SCORM module (1.2/2004) a user can only access their own data. Therefore you would not be able to create a leader board to bring in scores from several different users in a SCORM module. This would require a custom API to be used to request the data from the LMS (not using the SCORM API).
I think using xAPI, it is possible to bring in data from other users into something like a leader board. I haven't worked with xAPI for years now, but pretty sure I used it for something like that as it was one of the major differences between SCORM and xAPI.
If you'd like to know the (SCORM) data that can be accessed and reported in Edcast I'd highly recommend contacting your LMS vendor. They may also be able to let you know if they have any APIs available that would allow you to pull in data to create a leader board.

Got it Sam! That makes sense, and we'll do that - we'll get in touch with our LMS admin. Thank you!
