Education history from an applicant can often be inaccurate or incomplete. First Advantage‘s Education Verification service confirms an applicant’s qualifications by verifying that a degree, certificate, or diploma was received. Education verifications can be conducted globally and are obtained either directly from an institution or agent.
Education Verification services help employers avoid potential unfortunate consequences of hiring someone who has not obtained relevant qualifications for the role. An unqualified hire may not be able to perform necessary job requirements, which could adversely impact organisational performance.
In addition, professional licences can also be verified including type, status, certificate number, date of issue and expiry.
