I assume it would be cheaper to buy pre written html code (or make our own) than to hire someone to make an articulate storyline. But I don’t know.

I was going to say, you can just wrap the web page in a scorm package and pass the data back to the LMS. The problem with iframes is they by design really don’t interact with the site you are embedding it into. Theres a few things you can do, but it won’t record into the LMS if thats the goal. I do an iframe that reports out the users timezone, but it is not recording. I imagine you want to record the grade like a course would no?

You could use this technique, and then use the scorm information to actually transfer content back to Docebo, instead of leaving it broken like I typically do:
