Reviews

September 27, 2024
I use Experience API for LearnPress to track the progress of trainees enrolled on an e-learning site developed in LearnPress, with lots of H5P content.Its configuration with xAPI Companion, LearnPress and Grass Blade LRS is well documented and fairly straightforward.Reports are comprehensive (at least for fully compatible H5P quizzes) and support is very responsive.
