I am trying to:
Give users the ability to add / enter data that is on the Admin Screens.
As an example I have created CRED from for a custom type "Team Nomination".
Option 1.
I can create CRED forms and add it to a page and menu. Access to the menu is based on the user role.
see the screen from the site menu.
Option 2
Another way to do this would be let the user access the wordpress dashboard and that would give them access to all the screens they have permission to add / amend.
The admin screens have the default wordpress presentation (see admin panel screen shot)
The question is:
How do I present the wordpress admin screens using CRED from when the user accesses the dashboard?
The advantage of this is I no longer have to add the "Team Nomination" to the menu and the admin screen would have the same look and feel as the CRED form.
I also assume that if this is possible the CRED form which presents the admin screen will use the current theme as well.
This might be useful as an example if a team nomination is added by a user but an editor can change the nomination in the wordpress admin screen. It would be good to have the screen look the same of the user and the editor.
I visited this URL:

Dear paul,
CRED forms only work in wordpress front-end, so it is not possible to render a CRED form in wordpress admin side, I suggest you try this:
1) put the CRED form into a page,
2) create a link in dashborad, and link to above page.
Thanks for the response. I got the wrong impression from the CRED screen shot on the following page. https://toolset.com/home/cred/
