Hi Pat,
 
Here's what I saw:
 
Export
There are two ways to export a project
A zip file export will package (but not delete) your project into one zip
file. If you then open this file, the contents can be used to deploy your
project on any webpage.
Click on zip export to get your file - Zip export
A SCORM 1.2 file export will package (but not delete) your project into one
zip file. This zip file can then be imported by most VLEs to become part of
an online course. This file will be SCORM 1.2 compliant.
Click on Scorm export to get this package - Scorm export

Regards,
Remy

creating.
