EmployeescreenIQ has announced the launch of employeescreen University ), a first-of-its-kind online, educational learning resource for human resource, security and risk-management professionals, which features regularly updated, free background-screening information aimed to help organizations make better hiring decisions.
“employeescreen University is pioneering. It’s an interactive learning tool designed specifically for human resource, risk-management and security professionals. Visitors to the Web site will have the opportunity to learn how to enhance their background-screening procedures with best practices, as well as obtain important information that affects their use of background checks. We are proud to offer this one-of-a-kind, free service,” said Nick Fishman, employeescreenIQ chief marketing officer and executive vice president.
Jason Morris, chief operating officer and president, added, “This learning resource is just another piece of our mission: to offer objective, intelligent and smarter background screening information to our clients and other interested professionals.”
employeescreen University went live at midnight on March 12. The site features employeescreenIQ’s free newsletter “The Verifier,” relevant employment screening news compiled from international sources, U.S. legislative news updates, industry white papers, background-screening media resources, industry research, upcoming industry events, and a background-screening blog, that updated daily by the employeescreenIQ leadership team.
Additional features, including online community-building tools, article commenting, Webinars and podcasts, will be added to employeescreen University in the coming months. Features also will be created and added from user requests and suggestions, making employeescreen University’s future truly driven by its users.
“There is simply too little innovation in the employment space that effectively connects with companies in a meaningful way,” said Joel Cheesman, author of the popular industry blog Cheezhead.com. “Not only is employeescreen University progressive, but it also speaks to the heart of an industry clamoring for useful knowledge delivered in a convenient, unfettered manner. It represents a positive step forward for a market that truly needs it.”
Although this new, interactive learning resource takes its name from its parent company, employeescreen University is designed to offer objective and educational background-screening information. As the first free educational resource of its kind, employeescreen University was created to become a primary resource for human resource, risk management and security professionals searching for any information regarding background-screening best practices.
“For individuals involved in the hiring process, it’s imperative to know the latest news as it relates to employee screening,” said Mike Sanky, publisher of BRB Publications, the nation’s premier publisher of sourcebooks used for locating public records. “employeescreen University not only provides news updates, but also an array of comprehensive learning tools for hiring professionals of all disciplines and experience levels.”
