- Overview
-
Parchment is a digital credential and records-management platform used by K–12 schools to receive, store, send, and track transcripts, diplomas, transfer records, recommendations, verifications, and other academic documents. Students and alumni can request credentials online, while district staff manage fulfillment and confirm delivery through Parchment's exchange network.
The product solves a narrower problem than a full college-and-career planning platform: it replaces paper, fax, email, and disconnected request workflows with secure digital records and tracked delivery to colleges, employers, agencies, and other schools. Parchment became part of Instructure in 2024 and now sits within a broader learning and lifelong-credential ecosystem.
