Foreword

This standard describes a learning content ECMAScript API to support the data transfer needs of content with a runtime service in a Web-browser-based content delivery environment. This standard provides a starting point for specifying a data communication channel and methods to support the data transfer needs of education, training, and human performance support content. The capabilities of this API model may be extended as other communication needs or methods arise.

Scope

This standard describes an ECMAScript application programming interface (API) for content-to-runtime-services communication. This standard is based on an API defined in AICC/CMI Guidelines for Interoperability, Revision 3.4 [B1]¹, defined by the Aviation Industry CBT Committee (AICC). It defines common API services in the ECMAScript language that enable the communication of information between learning related content and a runtime service (RTS) used to support learning management. This standard does not address the data structures that may be transmitted, data security, or communication between an RTS and a related management system.
