The Credential As You Go initiative launched in 2021 with three state systems of higher education in Colorado, North Carolina, and New York – including community colleges and universities in those states. In the beginning of 2023, 28 additional organizations joined Credential As You Go, doubling the numbers of organizations working to design and implement incremental credentials. At the end of 2023, two additional state systems joined the Credential As You Go Network: The University of Texas System and The City University of New York. The entire Credential As You Go Network now includes 54 total members of eight state systems, 44 institutions, and two credentialing organizations across 22 states.
