Institutions importing legacy credentials and upgrading them to secure NFTs

Consolidate and elevate your institution's credentialing history. Bring it onto a single, secure, and globally recognized platform. Credly.study's Import/Transfer feature allows you to do this effortlessly. You can bring in all your existing achievements—whether they are paper records, standard digital files, or credentials from other blockchains. These are upgraded on our cutting-edge system as verified NFT credentials.

In simpler terms, you can upgrade any format of past certificates—physical or digital. They become modern, blockchain-verified digital credentials. This process modernizes your credentialing infrastructure. It also creates a future-ready repository aligned with international standards for verifiability and trust. That means your credentials become more secure, easier to prove, and widely accepted.

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, managing a wide variety of credentials is challenging. It’s hard to track certifications across formats, departments, and time. Maintaining consistency, ensuring security, and providing verifiable proof are essential. With growing concerns around data integrity, digital trust, and credential fraud, adopting transparent systems is crucial.

Data integrity means your records remain accurate and consistent. Digital trust ensures your data hasn’t been tampered with. Credential fraud occurs when someone uses fake qualifications. Credly.study provides a seamless solution. It unifies your past and future credentials in one place. Blockchain adds power and security. This creates a trusted ecosystem for academic and professional achievements.

Blockchain technology is a digital system for recording information. It makes records permanent and tamper-proof.

  • Dramatically Enhance Reputation Protection: Avoid issues from lost, damaged, or fake certificates. Issue tamper-proof, fraud-resistant NFT credentials. Credly.study verifies them as a Trusted Third Party (TTP), adding credibility.

    This protects your alumni and your institution’s integrity. It helps with international recognition and evaluations. A Trusted Third Party is a neutral, reliable group that confirms the authenticity of credentials.

  • Increase Attractiveness to Potential Students: Today’s learners are digitally native. They expect modern, tech-driven solutions in education. Offering secure, verifiable NFT credentials meets these expectations.

    This makes your institution more appealing. It also supports student mobility across borders. Student mobility means students can easily transition between schools or jobs globally. Standardized credentials make this easier.

What Types of Credentials Can You Import?

Our Import/Transfer feature is built to handle all types of records. You can bring virtually any achievement into the Credly.study ecosystem. That includes every format your institution has used in the past.

  • Traditional Paper Certificates/Diplomas: Convert your old paper records into verified NFTs. This is ideal for institutions with decades of archival documents. Archival documents are old records kept for legal or historical purposes. NFTs help preserve and verify them long-term.

  • Existing Digital Files (PDFs, Images): Upgrade standard digital formats into interactive, verifiable NFTs. These gain immutability, metadata traceability, and blockchain verification. Immutability means the data can't be changed. Metadata traceability shows the document’s full history. Blockchain verification makes credentials auditable by third parties.

  • Credentials on Other Blockchain Platforms: Bring your blockchain efforts together. You can recreate credentials from other chains on our CREST Chain. This lets you use our TTP status and platform features.

    It helps you manage multi-chain fragmentation. That ensures consistent verification across all credentials. Multi-chain fragmentation happens when credentials are spread across several blockchain systems, making management harder. Consolidation standardizes them.

The process creates a new, secure, and verifiable NFT record. It corresponds to your original credential, no matter the format. This unified record enhances security. It also improves analytics, archiving, and reporting.

Combining all credentials on one platform has major advantages. It helps track trends, report to stakeholders, and ensure access over time.

The Simplicity of the Import Process

The best part? It’s simple. You don’t need blockchain knowledge or a big IT team. Even institutions without tech expertise can use the platform fully. We offer two easy methods:

  1. Visual Credential Builder: Use a simple, user-friendly interface to recreate credentials. Input details like recipient, date, and qualification. Upload custom design elements for personalized branding. This method works best for smaller batches or important credentials.

    Custom branding means you keep your visual identity. Logos and official colors stay on your NFT credentials.

  2. Bulk Import via Spreadsheet: For large data volumes, use a standard spreadsheet format. We provide templates and step-by-step guidance. Upload it, and the system creates NFT credentials in batches.

    This saves time and effort. Institutions with legacy student systems can migrate data efficiently. Legacy systems are older software used to manage student information. This method lets you upgrade without a full system overhaul.

Our platform handles all the blockchain complexity behind the scenes. That includes wallet creation, transactions, and security protocols. You benefit from blockchain without needing to manage wallets or crypto infrastructure.

Wallets normally store digital assets like NFTs. In this case, the system manages everything automatically. You don’t need to worry about it.
