MyCreds™ is an innovative digital credential platform from the Association of Registrars of the Universities and Colleges of Canada (ARUCC).

“Seeing Niagara College expand their use of the MyCreds™ virtual wallet for their learners is an important next step in creating seamless digital options for learners” says Don Duclos, ARUCC Board representative for the Ontario College sector through CRALO. “Ontario colleges are embracing MyCreds™ as a way to provide official digital documents, badges, microcredentials and more. As an early participant in the MyCreds™ Ontario Virtual Skills Passport project for microcredentials, Niagara continues to deliver transformative innovations to support their learners and community.”
