Students are in their most vulnerable years. We rely on the teaching, security and support staff of our schools to protect them. The Defender Series™ Education Screening Solutions offer two levels of configuration to facilitate fast, informed hiring decisions by accessing criminal, education, professional, financial and employment records across the nation. Our Upgraded Education Screening Package searches more databases to screen in greater depth, with special focus on revealing professional misconduct and any violent or sexually-oriented offenses.
