Streamlined Background Report Management with Verified Credentials’ Report Scoring

Lakeville, Minn. — (October 2006) — Managing background screening programs can consume numerous hours for organizations; however, Report Scoring by the consumer reporting agency Verified Credentials can eliminate much of the time that would be used for managing, sorting and evaluating applicant background check reports.

Many organizations have a background screening requirement for candidates to pass a background check. Verified Credentials strives to provide options that make the reports’ details as efficient as possible for those organizations to utilize. The Report Scoring add-on tool for background screening programs maintains consistency, protects confidentiality and saves time for any business employing this organizational tool.

Typically, a pile of completed background reports would take time to sift through and organize in order to properly evaluate the data. Verified Credentials enables one to keep the process consistent. Report Scoring allows the school to customize the criteria used to sort the reports, such as Green indicating a Qualifier, Yellow for an Alert and Red for a Disqualifier. This report evaluating standard is a necessity, in particular for large, multiple location networks. Report Scoring also protects the confidentiality of the applicant’s background information. Each organization has an account that receives the full summary reports, sending categorized reports to select personnel so that the sensitive information is available to only the pertinent persons. When using Report Scoring, the summary report only includes the color-coded score, not the discrepant information uncovered about the applicant, once again defending the consumer’s confidentiality.

Report Scoring by Verified Credentials saves organizations management time as well as ensures consumer report confidentiality and fairness for the selection process. For more information about Verified Credentials products and services, please visit us on the Web at www.verifiedcredentials.com.
