Education Verification
Verifying a potential employee’s education history is a fundamental part of any comprehensive pre-hire background check. More than 50% of candidates submit false, exaggerated, or misleading information on resumes and job applications, so it is important for employers to do their due diligence and verify that the applicant is educationally qualified for the position.
AccuSource’s thorough education verifications confirm:
- The institution attended
- Dates of attendance and graduation
- Any degrees earned
- Fields of study
- Grade point averages, if available

AccuSource follows an exhaustive workflow using proprietary databases and long-established relationships with institutes of higher education to ensure our clients receive only the most accurate and up-to-date education verification information.
Where many background screening companies will set an arbitrary number of attempts they are willing to make before giving up on a verification, AccuSource continues to persist in obtaining the requested information until we succeed or all possible avenues are exhausted. Our commitment to our clients is resolute.
