Online learning that keeps people involved
Turn viewing into active learning, and active learning into measurable training activity.
Course authoring
Organise videos, documents, activities and assessments into clear modules without rebuilding content for every audience.
Interactive learning
Add questions and decision points inside learning content to turn watching into active participation.
Flexible assignment
Assign courses by employee, department, role, skill or target group with due dates and completion rules.
Knowledge checks
Use quizzes and graded assessments to verify understanding, reinforce key ideas and set pass requirements.
Learner progress
Give employees a clear view of assigned learning, completion status, deadlines, scores and learning history.
Reports and insight
Monitor participation, completion, scores, attempts and overdue learning across teams and departments.
Interactive content types, powered by H5P
Ten activity families out of the box
The Drupal LMS H5P module gives access to the open-source H5P activity library — no proprietary authoring licence required.
- Interactive video with in-video questions
- Multiple choice and true/false
- Timeline and drag-the-words
- Image juxtaposition and fill in the blanks
- Crossword and drag and drop
- Flashcards and presentations
Turn viewing into active learning
Insert questions at key moments in a video, pause playback for a response, and continue only after the learner has engaged. Results are saved to the learner record for completion and reporting.
- Timed knowledge checks
- Automatic response tracking
- Completion and score records
- Pass-mark thresholds per assessment
Structured digital learning, one focused module at a time
Build each course in clear layers: organise related content into sections, then add focused modules within every section. Employees always know what to do next, while HR can see where support is needed.
Group related content
A phishing awareness course may contain sections for spotting signs, checking the sender, handling suspicious links and reporting with confidence.
Focus each module on one job
Within a section, add focused modules — review the sender address, verify the domain, recognise impersonation clues — so each unit has a clear objective.
Mix media and interaction
Interactive video, scenario activity and knowledge check sit side by side, so a learner moves between watching, deciding and answering.
Verify, then record
Graded assessments produce scores, attempt counts and completion states written back to the employee learning record.
Bring every learning library into one experience
Connect external content providers and standards. Launch learning from external libraries, upload SCORM packages, and keep assignments, completion records and reporting in one place.
SCORM 1.2 & 2004
Upload SCORM packages authored in Articulate Storyline, Adobe Captivate and other standard tools. Completion and score data flow into the same reports as native content.
xAPI / Tin Can
The LMS XAPI module ingests xAPI packages and provides a minimalistic LRS for storing activity states and scores, including migration from Articulate 360.
YAML course packages
Export and import courses as zip packages with files in YAML format, so content can be version controlled and moved between environments.
H5P activity library
Open-source interactive activities maintained by the wider H5P community, with no per-activity licensing cost.
Questions about online learning and assessments
Choose content, assignments and assessment requirements that fit the learning objective.
What types of learning content can we use?
Build courses from videos, documents, activities and assessments. Interactive formats include video questions, multiple choice, timelines, drag-the-words, image comparison and fill-in-the-blanks questions.
Does OpenLMS support SCORM and external learning libraries?
Yes. The online learning module supports SCORM packages (1.2 and 2004), xAPI packages, and learning content integrations with external libraries. Confirm package versions, provider access, licensing and reporting requirements before selecting content.
How can HR assign and monitor courses?
Assign learning by employee, department, role, skill or target group, with due dates and completion rules. Review participation, scores, attempts, completion and overdue learning through reporting and insights.
When should we use online courses instead of microlearning?
Use a structured course when learners need a sequence of lessons, assessments and completion requirements. Use microlearning for a focused video, article, reminder or discussion that employees revisit during the workday.
Can learners complete courses on a phone?
Yes. Course pages are responsive, and H5P activities including interactive video work on mobile browsers. Examination delivery has separate requirements — see exam management for isolated-network delivery.
