The Commission requires Independent Third-Party Employment Verification for the following:

  • The Commission requires that initial and renewal applicants engage an independent third-party auditor to verify the school's most recently reported employment data that will be used for the on-site evaluation process.
  • The Commission may also direct a school to undergo a Third-Party Employment Verification at any time.
