Every year, 6.9 million students take part in study abroad programs (UNESCO). Alongside them are families, educators, universities, and institutions that must navigate unfamiliar education systems. EduAtlas was created to support these real-world situations.

EduAtlas can be used when:

• A student is exploring study options abroad
  (e.g. a student moving from one country to another checks how many years of schooling are required to access university and how long a bachelor’s degree lasts)

• Families are asked to support international education choices
  (e.g. parents compare how a degree from their home country aligns with programs offered abroad before making financial decisions)

• Universities evaluate international academic records
  (e.g. an admissions office reviews how grades and credits earned in one system correspond to their own requirements)

• Institutions design international programs
  (e.g. two universities in different regions compare their education systems to build a compatible exchange or dual-degree pathway)

• Students transfer or continue studies across borders
  (e.g. a student converts their transcript to understand how courses, credits, and grades will be recognized in another country)

• Educators, researchers, or policymakers analyze education systems
  (e.g. comparing national structures and qualification levels to inform teaching, research, or policy decisions)

As global interconnectedness increases, these and many other situations are becoming everyday challenges. EduAtlas, guided by the principle of Education without borders, aims to provide a free, open, and multi-actor response—supporting students, families, institutions, and decision-makers with shared understanding across education systems.
