Integration with LMS

Set Up the Integration

To begin using the Skilljar integration, follow these steps:

1. Go to Company Settings in Parta.io.

2. Open the LMS Integrations tab.

1. Click + Add LMS.

2. Select Skilljar from the list of LMS options.

3. Enter a name for your integration (e.g., "Skilljar Integration") and paste your API Key from Skilljar. Note: You can create multiple integration connections with a single LMS.

4. Save your settings. The integration will now be active.

Once set up, you’re ready to export courses from Parta.io to Skilljar.

Publish Courses to Skilljar

After finalizing your course content in Parta.io, follow these steps to publish it to Skilljar:

1. Open your project -> Export tab.

2. Action type is Publish to LMS.

1. Select how you'd prefer to publish course content to Skilljar:

• Single SCORM (all sections combined into one SCORM file).

• Multiple SCORMs (each section in Parta exported as a separate SCORM file).

Single SCORM

All sections from your Parta project are combined into one SCORM package.

Use when: You want a single, streamlined SCORM file in your LMS. Example: 4 sections in Parta → 1 SCORM file after export.

1. Select SCORM version (see Export courses article for details).

2. Choose publishing type:

   1. Create SCORM: The file will appear under Skilljar → Course Management → SCORM (selected by default).

   2. Create Course: A course with one lesson (based on the SCORM) will be created automatically in Skilljar Skilljar → Course Management → Courses.

3. Configure course progression logic for the entire course. Learn more here.

4. Expand Content tab to check the content you will export.

5. Adjust any LMS-specific settings, such as course completion triggers or debugging options, if needed.

6. When everything is configured, click Publish.

   1. Your SCORM file will be sent to Skilljar and published based on your selected publishing type.

Multiple SCORMs

Each section in your Parta project is exported as a separate SCORM file.

Use when: You want more detailed analytics, a flexible course structure, or the ability to reuse a single SCORM lesson across multiple courses. Example: 4 sections in Parta → 4 SCORM files, each added as a separate lesson in Skilljar.

1. Select SCORM version (see Export courses article for details).

2. Choose publishing type:

   • Create SCORMs: The files will appear under Skilljar → Course Management → SCORM (selected by default).

   • Create Course: A Skilljar course with multiple lessons (based on the Parta sections) will be created automatically Skilljar → Course Management → Courses.

3. Expand the Content tab to review exported content.

4. Configure progression logic for each section individually (see Export courses article for details):

   1. Click the ⚙️ icon next to each section title to adjust settings.

   2. You can also apply the same logic to all sections of a particular type (content or test).

   
5. Adjust any LMS-specific settings, such as course completion triggers or debugging options, if needed.

6. When everything is configured, click Publish.

   1. Your SCORM files will be sent to Skilljar and published based on your selected publishing type.

Things to keep in mind when using the multiple SCORMs option

• Remove the sidebar menu: Since each SCORM file will be added as a separate lesson, the sidebar is unnecessary and may confuse learners.

  • To remove: Branding → Section → Header → Menu button → Display menu → No.

• Disable navigation buttons: These can mislead users when navigating between separately exported SCORM packages.

  • To remove: Branding → Section → Navigation buttons → Display buttons → No

• Internal links and buttons will be disabled: Any in-course links between sections created in Parta won’t function after export.

• Course progression logic applies per SCORM file: Progression settings will only affect the specific section exported in each SCORM package, not the course as a whole.

Update Published Courses

If your course has already been exported to Skilljar, when you make changes to a course in Parta.io, you can update it in Skilljar.

1. Make the necessary edits in Parta.io.

2. Go back to the Export tab.

3. You’ll see three publishing options:

Update SCORM

Create SCORM

Create course

This option is the best one if you want to update previously published SCORMs (as individual lessons).

• When you click Update, Parta will generate new SCORM packages and automatically replace the old versions in all Skilljar courses where those files were previously used.

• If your update includes newly created sections, Parta will not automatically create new lessons in Skilljar. You’ll need to manually add these new SCORM(s) files to the appropriate course(s).

Updating SCORM files via Parta.io does not affect learner progress in Skilljar. All user data and completion statuses remain intact.

You will create a new SCORM package (or multiple packages) in Skilljar. The files will appear under Skilljar → Course Management → SCORM (selected by default).

How Updates Work

The update process in Parta.io works independently from the original publishing type.

If you choose Create SCORM(s), Parta will generate new SCORM packages in Skilljar, but it won’t update any existing courses—you’ll need to manage that manually.

A Skilljar course will be automatically created—either with one lesson or multiple lessons, based on the sections in Parta Skilljar → Course Management → Courses.

Summary

• SCORM export gives you flexibility in how your course is structured and delivered inside Skilljar.

• You can fully control course completion logic, navigation rules, and content structure before export.

• Our integration supports iterative updates—so your team can continuously improve courses without manual re-imports.

This integration bridges Parta.io and Skilljar, making it easier than ever to manage your eLearning content effectively.
