Every revolution requires both dreamers and pragmatists. The xAPI dreamers have been painting a beautiful picture of what is becoming possible. To realize its full potential, the pragmatists need to catch up. The xAPI needs a very specific set of work completed to be successful, and it needs organizations to participate in making the next generation of learning systems and impacts possible.

In this session, you will learn how LRPs (learning record providers, formerly known as “activity providers”) can best ramp up their development teams to start realizing the full potential of the xAPI. Learn about the current status of the official xAPI Conformance Suite. You will learn which questions to ask in order to tell if a vendor is really xAPI conformant. And finally, see how you can contribute to the xAPI community.

In this session, you will learn:

• How LRPs can best ramp up their development teams
• About the xAPI Conformance Suite
