Multilingual Wrapper – The Solution to Hosting eLearning Translations in the LMS

We all know that translating the master English eLearning course into desired target languages is a great way of providing effective and consistent training across the organization. But the downside is that you now have multiple versions (in different international languages) of the same course, and the need to host the various translated courses on the LMS!

In this scenario, generating consolidated reports, keeping track of multiple versions (imagine the chaos if you have 30 translations!), or replacing updated versions in the LMS could become a major issue. The good news is that you can say goodbye to all those LMS challenges once and for all after reading this blog.

Wondering how? Well, this is where the ‘multilingual wrapper’ comes to your rescue – promising to resolve all your LMS challenges with translated courses.

Now, before taking a look at the multilingual wrapper in detail, how about going through the problems it addresses?

Frequent LMS Issues with Translated Courses

The Multilingual Wrapper (also known as Multilingual Shell) is capable of ironing out all your LMS challenges with translated courses. Here are some frequent LMS challenges and the solutions that the multilingual wrapper offers.

Uploading numerous SCORM packages or multiple versions of one e-learning course on the LMS.

Solution: Instead of hosting the master course along with all its translated versions in the LMS, your multilingual shell will layer all these versions of the eLearning course in a single SCORM package. That way your LMS administrator doesn’t have to administer multiple language versions of the same course (an arduous task in the best of hands!).

Handling and storing several source files of translated courses and their assets.

Solution: Your multilingual wrapper places the required source files in the shell, instead of trying to manage the different source files for every language, separately. This makes it easy and faster to identify the source files in the archives.

Procuring an integrated report for courses in multiple languages.

Solution: The multilingual wrapper lets you extract consolidated reports on the one course you have hosted in the LMS, and simplifies its tracking and reporting. It saves you the bother (and the time and effort) of producing separate reports for each language.

Switching and accessing courses in multiple languages.

Solution: Earlier, learners who had enrolled in their preferred language in the beginning of the course, were not allowed to switch the language mid-way; they had to go through the whole enrollment process again. But with the wrapper, that is no more an issue. Learners can switch courses flexibly, anytime they want.

Replacing the revised versions on the LMS.

Solution: You can avoid the whole time-consuming process of taking-down-a-version-to-upload-another and simply remove and upload the multilingual course shell once. This way, the multilingual shell helps improve the whole learning experience.
