Responsibilities

================

The Credentials app is responsible (along with the `programs app`_)

for communicating with the `credentials service`_, which is

the system of record for a learner's Program Certificates, and which (when enabled by the edX

instance) is the system of record for accessing all of a learner's credentials.
