About the Course Parts Form

The Course Parts service is mainly used as a data tracker service that can also be integrated with a Learning Management System (LMS) using the Aptify e-Business Suite. This service stores the set of individual pieces that comprise a course or class. For Aptify systems that integrate with an LMS, each Course Part corresponds to a piece of SCORM or Tin Can content that can be uploaded to an e-Business site (see Using Aptify Learning Management System for details).
