Common Cartridge

Instructors can import course content from another LMS into a CN course (either a Classic or Pathway course) using Common Cartridge, a packaging standard for content that simplifies exchanges between platforms.

To get started, make sure you’ve exported your course into a Common Cartridge file.

STEP 1: From your CN course, click on the gear icon next to the course name. Click on Import Course Content from the dropdown that appears.

STEP2: On the Import Course Content page, make sure Common Cartridge is selected from the Content Type dropdown. Then click on the Upload File link to upload your Common Cartridge file.

STEP 3: After uploading your Common Cartridge file, click on the IMPORT button.

Your course content should now be imported into your CN course. You can view the details of your upload from the History table below the form.

If you now go to Tasks/Activities, Quizzes, Files (for Classic courses only), and GradeBook in your course, you can find the imported content. 

Please read the attached documents to learn the Common Cartridge compatibility details for both Classic and Pathway courses.
