Verified Credentials Named Preferred Partner by ProjectConcert to Support Background Screening in Education and Workforce Readiness

project concert blog design 2-02

Verified Credentials, a trusted provider of background screening and compliance solutions, has been named a Preferred Partner by ProjectConcert, a cloud-based platform used by higher education institutions to manage experiential learning, track faculty activities, and collect both course-level and program-level data.  Designed for healthcare and education programs, they support competency-based education, streamlines data collection, and align with state, regional, and regional, and national accreditation.  


Together, Verified Credentials and ProjectConcert offer complementary tools to help institutions manage the growing demands of both student requirement management and workforce screening, supporting safe, compliant entry into classrooms, clinical settings, and the workplace.

Supporting credentialing across campus and beyond

This partnership unites two experienced organizations with a shared mission to streamline credential verification and ensure readiness for real-world application—whether that means starting a clinical rotation or beginning a job on campus.


Verified Credentials helps institutions:

  • Support student compliance with background checks, immunization tracking, and clinical documentation
  • Guide students step-by-step through an intuitive portal
  • Reduce delays with expert review teams and responsive U.S.-based support
  • Simplify employee hiring with comprehensive employment background checks, drug screening, and occupational health services
  • Align student and workforce screening under a single trusted provider

“Verified Credentials has proudly supported higher education institutions for decades,” said Brian Chapman, Chief Revenue Officer at Verified Credentials. “This alliance with ProjectConcert expands that support to meet the full spectrum of credentialing needs—from student clinical readiness to campus employment. Together, we’re helping institutions prepare confident, compliant professionals ready to make an impact.”

 

A partnership focused on higher education

Verified Credentials and ProjectConcert share a vision for modern credential management and background checks – one that reduces complexity, meets regulatory standards, and puts students and staff on the path to success.
