Import external courses with xAPI

Course admins can now bring courses built in external authoring tools into ahead Learning by uploading an xAPI ZIP file.
Import external courses with xAPI

Imported courses sit alongside courses built in ahead and use the same enrolment, notification and progress tracking capabilities.

Upload a ZIP, get a course
Export your course from any xAPI-compatible authoring tool and upload the ZIP when creating a new course in ahead. ahead hosts the content and learners open it from the course page in an embedded window (iframe) that preserves the original content and styling, so navigation and visuals stay true to the source.

Full ahead capabilities around the content
Even though the content is created elsewhere, admins can enroll participants, set deadlines, assign channels, control visibility (public or private), send notifications and track completion, the same way they do for any other course.

External course import is an optional capability of ahead Learning. To turn it on for your organization, get in touch with your Customer Success Manager.
