How does the Account Code work for our school students?
Upon registration, your institution is assigned a unique Account Code (e.g. WEA-SG-2026). When your students sign up or publish books on Criston Books, entering this code automatically associates their manuscripts, copies sold, and honors with your school portal and student leaderboard.
Does it cost anything for our school or college to register?
No! Institutional registration and onboarding are 100% free of charge. Your school receives an instant public showcase page, access to the private management dashboard, and promotional kits for national championships at zero upfront cost.
Who retains the intellectual property rights of student books?
100% of the copyright remains with the student author and their guardians. Criston Books operates as a non-exclusive publisher and distributor.
Can multiple teachers and coordinators access the School Dashboard?
Yes. Our platform includes Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). The primary administrator can invite department heads, English teachers, or librarians with coordinator or read-only privileges.
