Education Verification Services
Confirm Academic Credentials with Confidence
Education credentials are one of the most common areas where applicants exaggerate or falsify information. Fast Track Backgrounds offers quick, accurate education verification to ensure that your candidates truly have the qualifications they claim.
What Is Education Verification?
We contact schools, colleges, universities, or credentialing bodies directly to confirm:
- School or institution name
- Dates attended
- Degree or certification earned
- Major or field of study
For closed schools, we locate the custodian of records to verify credentials.
Why Education Verification Matters
Hiring someone with false or inflated credentials can lead to skill gaps, compliance violations, and damaged credibility.
Example: A healthcare facility hires a nurse who claims a degree they never earned. This could result in legal action, fines, and harm to patient safety.
Benefits of education verification include:
- Preventing resume fraud.
- Ensuring candidates meet professional licensing requirements.
- Protecting your organization from compliance violations.
- Enhancing quality of hires.
