Are there electronic means available for verifying education?
Yes. You can access a number of the schools electronically through the http://www.studentclearinghouse.com. Other Schools have their own web sites for verifying education (please check directly with the school). For a fee (generally $5/verification), you can verify degrees from participating institutions. Clearinghouse records are considered a “Primary Source” and are approved for credential verification by Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) and the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA). Your institution must pay any fees involved in verifying credentials.
