What is an Academic Record Check? What Does it Cover?

Any organization needs to recruit candidates that are a perfect fit for the company, which would considerably promote its upliftment & growth. All of this directly depends on the standards of employees existing in the company.

 

Educational qualification is one of the parameters for the correct decision making for an employee. The hiring department always aims towards searching for an employee who fits the qualification prerequisites. Still, in many cases, the candidate falsely claims their academic records to achieve higher remunerations.

 

Such incidents make it essential for the organization to opt for an Academic record check, also known as Educational Qualification screening, to avoid mishappenings or fraudulence in the coming future.

 

What is Academic Records Check?

 

Academic record check, also known as Educational Qualification screening, means verifying and validating the certificates, degrees, and other educational claims of the candidate, including a year of completion, the course pursued. It is also a part of pre-employment verification; an Academic record check works as a shield for an employer, a valuable review facilitating against false claims. Academic record screening is done by contacting or, in a few cases visiting the institutions directly.

 

What are the parameters under consideration?

 

The main focus while conducting an Academic record check is towards examining the originality of the degrees & certificates, checking on how authentic the course pursued is, course duration, year of completion & the grades achieved.
