Building the Perfect AICC

Get your own ASP.NET AICC Learning Management System (LMS) engine

Purpose:

We created AICC Watch to provide a test bed while we added AICC support to our Training Studio® and Exam Engine™ products. While there is a free test suite (and lots of good documentation) available at http://www.aicc.org, we found it difficult to use on Vista/Windows 7 because it created these strange modal dialog boxes that kept you from running the Learning Management System (LMS) simulation in one window and your content in another. The AICC Test Suite also requires you to install the Apache web server. That was not a big problem but it takes time and effort to get it running alongside Internet Information Services (IIS).

The Solution:

For AICC Watch, we followed the model of our popular SCORM Watch™ product to make an interactive LMS simulation that you can use to make sure your content sends and receives bookmarks, question information, and other data. While there are several flavors of AICC, this product deals with the HACP (HTTP AICC CMI Protocol) interface. This is where the content communicates with the LMS using HTTP Post.

The Uses:

AICC Watch allows you to see/control the information sent to your content as well as display and act on the data sent from your content. For advanced developers, you can even debug AICC calls directly from within Visual Studio. Source code is included!

  • Jeff you are a star........................whatever they are paying you, you deserve more. Send me a customer satisfaction survey if you have one.
  • Jeff. Over the years of reading the listserv, I have always been amazed on how many people you have responded to with all kinds of issues. I am glad you have remained such an integral part of keeping ToolBook alive. Thanks again for the edification and all of your time you spent with me this week. A person can always replace money with more money. However, you cannot replace time with more time. So thanks again for everything!
  • What a pleasant surprise to see follow-through on a commitment. Our last-second request on a Friday night, asking for key codes is asking a lot. We're small business - real small. But, we have a big job and approaching deadline. Taking time away from your family to help us is most appreciated. Jeff, you are a true entrepreneur. We are most grateful. Thank you.
  • You and Platte Canyon continue to help us move ahead. Many thanks!
  • First of all, I just want to say that I really like your company! I recently met Jeff Rhodes at the Training 99 conference in Chicago, and was greatly relieved and impressed to find someone who could answer technical questions about Toolbook Instructor. I was also very impressed with Chris Bell when ordering upgrades of Toolbook from Platte Canyon. Way to go!!!
