Credential Transfer Portal

International Consultants of Delaware (ICD) is a division of CGFNS International. To support international mobility for health professionals worldwide, CGFNS has launched the online Credential Transfer Portal (CTP) for educational institutions and licensing authorities to submit information to CGFNS electronically. The Portal enables educational organizations to submit academic records on behalf of their graduates and enables regulatory bodies to submit licensure or registration verifications on behalf of their registrants – safely, securely, and more conveniently than ever.

The new portal eliminates the need for organizations to send paper verifications to CGFNS.

To use the CGFNS Credential Transfer Portal, organizations must have a website domain that ends in .edu, .ac, .org, .gov and a request to use the Portal must be approved by an executive of the institution (Dean, Registrar, Principal, Provost, Vice President, other person in higher authority). This is to ensure that credentials are received from authorized sources through official means.

At this time, the Credential Transfer Portal is only available for nursing professionals. Other health professionals will be available in the future.

For additional information, please review the FAQs and Resources.
