Do you know who your vendors are? Are you confident about your organization’s hiring practices? Your organization should be conducting vendor background investigations. These investigations are conducted to determine the suitability of vendors for critical or sensitive employment positions or access to classified information.

Background investigations may cover a broad or limited scope, depending on a position’s degree of sensitivity or level of access to classified information. Knowing what to look for in vendors will help safeguard your organization from dishonest individuals who could destroy your credibility and integrity.

In two information-packed days, our experienced instructor will guide you through the interviewing and background investigation process. This class will help you master the skills necessary to detect deception and other behaviors that could jeopardize your operation. This course is an invaluable tool for protecting your organization.
