Customising Your Peoplesafe SCORM Training Files

These source files allow you to tailor the Peoplesafe eLearning modules to match your organisation — including your employees' specific roles, the device features they have enabled, and your own branding if needed.


What you'll need

  • A computer running Windows or Mac
  • A plain text editor:
    • Windows: Notepad (built in — search for it in the Start menu)
    • Mac: TextEdit (built in — but you must switch it to Plain Text mode first: open TextEdit → Format menu → Make Plain Text)
  • The source files downloaded from this article (see links below)
  • A way to create a ZIP file (built in to both Windows and Mac)

You do not need any coding knowledge. All the sections you can safely change are clearly labelled inside the files.

Here it is, ready to paste:


Customising Your Peoplesafe SCORM Training Files

Download the source files

Each module comes as a folder containing an index.html file you edit, a scorm_api.js file (do not edit), and an images/ folder.

Module
MySOS Device Training
Peoplesafe App Training
MySOS ID Badge (4G) Training

How to open and edit the file

  1. Download and unzip the folder for the module you want to edit.
  2. Open the index.html file in Notepad or TextEdit.
  3. Use Find (Ctrl+F on Windows, Cmd+F on Mac) and search for EDIT THIS — this jumps you to every section you can safely change.
  4. Make your changes (see the sections below for what to change).
  5. Save the file. Keep the filename as index.html.

Important: Only change the text between > and < marks, or inside " " quotation marks when a comment tells you to. Do not delete the angle brackets themselves.


What you can customise

1. Module title and introduction text

At the top of the module you can change the module title, the intro subtitle, and the small company badge label on the intro screen.

Search for: EDIT THIS: Change module title


2. Colours and branding

Near the top of the file you'll find colour codes like #00b4c8. Replace these with your own brand hex codes. Ask your marketing team for these, or use coolors.co to find them.

The colours you can change are the main background, accent/highlight colour, button colour, and alarm/danger colour.

Search for: EDIT THIS: Main background colour


3. Videos

To replace a video with your own, upload it to Vimeo, copy the embed URL (format: https://player.vimeo.com/video/YOURVIDEOID), then find and replace the existing URL in the file.

Search for: EDIT THIS: Replace with your Video URL

If you don't have your own videos, leave the existing Peoplesafe videos in place.


4. Question text and answer options

Each question has a question text, answer options, correct answer feedback, and wrong answer feedback — all of which you can edit.

To change which answer is correct, find data-correct="1" and change the number: 0 = A, 1 = B, 2 = C, 3 = D.

Search for: EDIT THIS: Change question text

Adding role-specific feedback — the "When should you raise an alarm?" question is a great place to add context. For example:

  • Home care workers: "If you are visiting a service user alone and feel uncomfortable, raise an alarm immediately."
  • Retail workers: "If a customer is becoming aggressive or threatening, raise an alarm straight away."
  • Lone workers visiting properties: "If you arrive at a property and something feels wrong before you even enter, raise an alarm."

5. Removing slides you don't need

Each slide is labelled with a comment explaining what it covers. To remove a slide:

  1. Find the comment for that slide and delete everything from that comment to the matching closing </div>.
  2. Find the sequence array near the bottom of the file (search for EDIT THIS: Remove slide numbers) and delete that slide's number.

Common slides you might remove:

  • QR code / Save numbers — if employees already have the numbers saved
  • Why Peoplesafe is faster than 999 — if already covered in your induction
  • Fall detection branch — if none of your employees have fall detection

6. Fall detection — simplifying the branch

If ALL employees have fall detection: Search for EDIT THIS: If ALL employees have fall detection and follow the comment instructions to remove the Yes/No choice and go straight to the fall detection content.

If NO employees have fall detection: Search for EDIT THIS: If NO employees have fall detection and delete those slides, then remove their numbers from the sequence array.


7. Safety features — showing only the relevant one

MySOS Device and ID Badge modules: If all your employees have the same feature (e.g. all have Timed Activity), search for EDIT THIS: If all employees have the same feature and follow the instructions to skip the selector.

App module: Remove feature menu buttons for features your employees don't have access to. Search for EDIT THIS: Remove buttons for features not available.


8. Score slide

Update the maximum score numbers to match how many questions you've kept. Each question is worth 1 point; fall detection questions add 1–2 extra points.

Search for: EDIT THIS: Update max score


Packaging your edited file as a SCORM ZIP

Once you've saved your edited index.html:

  1. Make sure your folder contains: index.html, imsmanifest.xml, scorm_api.js, and the images/ folder.
  2. Select all the files inside the folder (not the folder itself).
  3. Right-click → Compress (Mac) or Send to → Compressed (zipped) folder (Windows).
  4. Name the ZIP something descriptive, e.g. mycompany_mysos_training.zip.
  5. Upload to your LMS as a SCORM 1.2 package.

Common mistake: Make sure you zip the contents of the folder, not the folder itself. When unzipped, index.html should be at the top level — not inside a subfolder.
