Update to SafetySkills Course Interface and Reporting

On March 24, 2017 and April 19, 2017, SafetySkills published an update to our course interface that may affect reporting.

Improved course communication and reporting.
Finished assignments will report a lesson status of “Passed” instead of “Completed” to better align with the SCORM and AICC standards.
All courses will report a score of 0 when launched or incomplete, and will report a score of 100 once they are passed.

For Administrators, Super Administrators and Owners in the SafetySkills LMS with the default SafetySkills Interface:

All finished courses will show a lesson status of “Passed” instead of “Completed.”
On the reports page, there is a column for “Lesson Status.” Currently, the lesson status shows as “Completed” for non-traditional/non-scored courses and “Passed” for traditional/scored courses.
If you have reports filtering specifically for “Completed” status, you will need to update those reports to include a filter for “Passed.” Courses finished before March 24, 2017 will remain with their lesson status as is.
After March 24, 2017, you can contact SafetySkills to request that all assignments in your account be changed from “Completed” to “Passed” to align previous and future assignment lesson statuses.

For Administrators, Super Administrators and Owners in the SafetySkills LMS with a Custom Interface:

SCORM licensing customers will not be affected in this update, but may be affected when new licenses are delivered in the future.
