CLCIMS, or Computer Learning Content Information Management System, is used in the eLearning sector to define a SCORM compliant learning environment. The abbreviation has been adopted due to the way that it can be pronounced phonetically (effectively "click-hymns").
SCORM assumes the existence of a suite of services called by some a "Learning Management System" and by others a "Learning Content Management System", and formerly called a "Computer Managed Instruction" system. These services may also be called a "Learning Support Environment" by some vendors. CLCIMS is emerging as a way to encompass all of these terms by learning content developers.
CLCIMS also refers to CLCIMS 1.0, as the specification number is normally omitted. As other suites of services appear that are SCORM compliant they will be incorporated into the wide CLCIMS definition and the version number will be changed and the more general CLCIMS definition will informally refer to the most recent version.
