Criminal Background History Checks

As education industry employees are in constant contact with children, it’s important to know the full criminal history of each teacher and administrator. Hiring a candidate without knowing this information could compromise the safety of a child and bring litigation or a bad reputation to your institution or district. We facilitate detailed criminal history checks, which are always cross-checked and verified across an array of official sources, so you have the most accurate information at hand.

Academic & License Verifications

When shaping the minds of future generations, teachers across the country must first have quality education themselves. There are times though when a candidate may falsify their education history, academic qualifications, or licenses and certifications to get a job. We can identify incorrect or dishonest information and claims on your candidates’ applications with our academic verification service. Our verifications screen diplomas, degrees, certificates, and more to ensure you hire the most qualified teacher.

Drug & Alcohol Testing

Drug & alcohol use on the job is dangerous and inappropriate in any field. In the education industry, working under the influence can have dire consequences for your institution and the people and children in it. That’s why we offer drug and alcohol testing for candidates and existing employees alike, so you can better enforce a drug-free environment and safeguard the well-being of the children in your schools.
