Data Conversion

& Migration

SEAMLESS TRANSITIONS THAT PRESERVE EDUCATIONAL VALUE

Platform migrations and content conversions require more than technical transfer-they demand deep understanding of learning architectures, assessment logic, and instructional dependencies. We handle the complete migration lifecycle from legacy systems to modern platforms, ensuring your educational content maintains its pedagogical integrity, technical functionality, and accessibility compliance through the transition.

What We Migrate

Ensuring Instructional and Technical Integrity

We analyze course architecture before migration to identify instructional dependencies-prerequisite chains, conditional releases, adaptive pathways, and mastery-based progressions-ensuring these relationships survive platform transitions without loss of pedagogical intent. Complex assessment features require specialized handling: randomization rules, item pools, partial credit algorithms, formula-based scoring, and time restrictions are validated to produce identical results and learner experiences in the target environment. Accessibility conformance must survive migration, so we audit and remediate content during conversion, addressing platform-specific features, screen reader compatibility, keyboard navigation, and alternative text requirements to maintain WCAG and Section 508 compliance standards. Communication paths for tracking, grade passback configurations, and integration protocols are tested to ensure data flows and reporting tool access function correctly post-migration.

Migration Process & Validation

Discovery & Planning

Comprehensive audit of source systems, content inventories, data models, and technical dependencies. We document custom features, third-party integrations, and unique configurations that require special handling or acceptable alternatives in the target platform.

Mapping & Transformation

Detailed field-level mapping between source and target schemas, handling data type conflicts, required field differences, and platform-specific constraints. Custom transformation scripts for complex conversions, with logging and error handling for audit trails.

Staged Migration & Testing

Pilot migrations with representative content sets, followed by validation against success criteria. We conduct parallel runs, comparative testing, and stakeholder reviews before full-scale execution. Rollback procedures and contingency plans address unforeseen issues.

Post-Migration Support

Verification reporting with detailed logs of migrated objects, exceptions, and manual interventions required. User acceptance testing coordination, issue triage, and optimization of migrated content for target platform performance and features.

Platform & Format Expertise

We work across major LMS platforms (Canvas, Moodle, Blackboard Learn, D2L Brightspace), proprietary publisher systems, assessment engines (Respondus, ExamSoft, Questionmark), and authoring tools (Articulate, Captivate, Lectora). Our conversion capabilities span content standards (SCORM, xAPI, AICC, cmi5, QTI, LTI), data formats (CSV, XML, JSON, SQL databases), and legacy format modernization (Java applets to JavaScript, desktop applications to web-based systems). We handle custom API integrations for platforms without standard export/import mechanisms.
