Get started with CRED
CRED accepts course and equivalency data from authorized sources and publishes it as a public good. Choose the path that matches your institution — each takes a few minutes.
I'm an Acadeum client
Your course and equivalency data is already structured in the Acadeum network. Authorize CRED to publish your equivalencies to the national database — no integration work required.
Authorize data contributionI'm an Ad Astra client
Connect through the Ad Astra integration. You authorize Ad Astra to send your course and equivalency data to CRED on your behalf — synced automatically from your SIS.
Set up the integrationNeither — but I want in
Register your interest. Tell us about the data you have, send us a sample, or point us at the people in your institution who own course and articulation data.
Register interestNot sure which applies? State systems, vendors, and researchers should register interest — we'll route you to the right onboarding path.
