Online Degree Verification – Ensuring Genuine Qualification

by ICrederity India Certified Background Verification Company

As hiring managers or human resources professionals, you are likely to be faced with the task of reviewing applications and resumes of people who want to work for your organization or who want to be promoted. Some applicants may list credentials or degrees that appear credible, such as bachelor's, master's, or doctorate degrees, or professional certification.

Attached to many resumes are academic documents that warn that some people are buying credentials or degrees from "diploma mills" companies. Most "diploma-making" companies charge a flat fee, require little if any education, and award a degree or diploma based solely on work or life experience.

For this reason, the verification of these studies documents carried out for a job vacancy or an internal promotion becomes an activity that requires certain skills and involves a special work methodology. These knowledge skills are validated through verification with institutions accredited by the Ministry of National Education or UGC, respectively. Said institutions are obliged to issue the respective documents that certify that the interested person carried out and completed the study plan, complying with all the requirements and commitments acquired. These documents are commonly the degree certificate, diploma, and/or certificate of competencies.

By not going through the verification process, you could appoint an unqualified person to a position of responsibility, leaving your organization to be held liable if the employee's actions hurt someone.
