Abstract
An offline learning system may include a learning management system, a content management system, and a learning administration system. The content management system is provided with a metadata provider, a learning content storage (e.g., the content repository), and a repository manager. In addition, the learning station includes an offline manager tool and a storage for storing an offline learning account, metadata, and course. Offline courses are derived from the published on-line courses. A copy editor may create offline versions of courses from published courses using a repository manager tool. The repository tool manager may be used to create a packaging list for the offline version of a course. The packaging list includes access paths and metadata of all files that are part of the course. The packaging list may be used to determine which files need to be downloaded to the learning station to allow the learner to work offline.
