About Credentials
The Center for Career Development is discontinuing its paper credential service and is now referring clients to Interfolio for the processing of credentials. Interfolio is an online service that provides safe storage and electronic or paper sending of your credentials documents.
New clients should open accounts directly with Interfolio.
Those who currently have paper files with our office have the following options with regard to your credential file:
- Transfer the contents of your BU credentials file to Interfolio. We will send your file to Interfolio and arrange for a one-year account. To facilitate this transition, BU will pay for the set up of this one-year account. (Note this only applies to those who already have an established paper file with the CCD.)
- Close your BU credentials file and have the confidential contents destroyed.
- Send your file to the credential file office of a different institution where you may have received an undergraduate or graduate degree. BU will send your documents, but you will need to make your own arrangements to open a file at your other institution.
Please call 617-353-3590 with further instructions on how to transfer your file.
Paper files held by this office and not used or updated for ten (10) or more years are considered inactive and may be destroyed.
