Explore What’s Inside the Standards Repository

With ExACT, you gain access to one of the most comprehensive collections of educational standards available. We track and maintain standards from all 50 U.S. states, plus national and international sources—including CTE, Next Gen Science, Common Core, and supplemental frameworks like CASEL, ISTE, and WIDA.

This is more than a reference library. The standards in our repository are structured and delivered in ways that make them easy to integrate into your platform or content. Whether you’re displaying alignment on product pages, powering search and filtering tools, supporting reporting requirements, or mapping content across multiple frameworks, ExACT provides the foundation to make standards visible and actionable within your system.

Below, you’ll find interactive maps that give a high-level view of what’s included in our repository. Click into each one to explore the standards we currently house, whether you're looking for K–12 academic standards, workforce-aligned CTE pathways, or international benchmarks.

Need CASE identifiers?

Working with standards often starts with access to consistent, machine-readable data, but it doesn’t end there. Organizations also need that data to be structured, maintained, and usable across real workflows.

Through our 1EdTech-certified CASE API, you can access a comprehensive repository of academic standards, frameworks, and competencies. Additionally, EdGate provides CASE identifiers as separate data fields via your existing API or bulk download, complementing our EdGate UUIDs.

Get Started with CASE Today

More Than CASE Compatible

CASE has become an important standard for exchanging academic standards and competencies across education systems. As an active member of the 1EdTech community, EdGate doesn't simply consume CASE data. We help organizations create it, manage it, implement it, and deliver it at enterprise scale.

With EdGate you can:

Access CASE-ready standards directly from our repository

Convert existing standards and frameworks into CASE

Publish newly authored frameworks in CASE format

Receive correlations and metadata using CASE identifiers

Integrate CASE data through our certified API

Work with our team to implement CASE across your products and workflows

Benefit from EdGate's ongoing contributions to the broader CASE community

Many organizations begin by looking for CASE-compatible solutions. While CASE interoperability is an essential foundation, organizations often discover they need additional capabilities to manage standards across authoring, alignment, maintenance, reporting, and delivery. The comparison below highlights those differences.
