Can we collect demographics on OCI users?

Organizations under a premium plan can develop a custom form and require users to fill out that form before accessing their courses. This form allows you to collect demographics on your users.

Please be aware that requiring users to complete a form before accessing courses can be a hindrance. The more personal information you request, the higher the likelihood that users will abandon the self-registration process.

Can someone “download” my courses in OCI?

No. OCI is secure and your courses remain your intellectual property. When users self-register on your site via OCI and enrol in your courses, they are creating an account on your learning environment. There is no way for an individual to download your course and install it in their learning environment. They can only view courses that you’ve already decided to make available to the general public.

How easy is it to join OCI?

Very easy. You can have your first course published in the OCI marketplace in a matter of hours. Afterwards, publishing additional courses is a matter of minutes. Note that this does not include the time to design and develop your SCORM packages or other multi-media courses.
