Fingerprinting New Hires for Schools


This school year is very different from the years past. There are several new rules and regulations put in place by the state in order to keep everyone safe and healthy. One of these rules, as suggested by the CDC, is to limit the number of students in a classroom. For the school, this means more classes and more teachers. You're about to bring on a lot of new hires!

It is of the utmost importance that schools only hire the best of the best. This extends well beyond where somewhere earned their teaching degree from and whether they have recommendations. You need to send your new hires for fingerprinting to ensure this individual is not a criminal or predator. The sad and scary truth is that people will lie to get a job. Their fingerprints do not lie!

For this service, come to American Identity Solutions. We process thousands of applicants annually for all requests, including those who will be working with children. American Identity Solutions, located in Bethesda, Maryland, is a CJIS-authorized provider of secure Livescan fingerprint services. This means we offer fast, electronic fingerprinting and background checks so criminal history results are received in a matter of days, rather than weeks or even months. Mobile services are available for large groups if that's what your school needs. We offer a full service pre-employment package, so everything you need to know that you're hiring a great candidate can be taken care of all at once.

Gone are the days of messy inky fingerprints that can smudge or take a long time to get the results. Just like sending an email is quicker than sending a letter, your electronic fingerprint services come back to you much quicker too! Fingerprint submissions are made electronically by professional, certified fingerprint technicians using state-of-the-art equipment. There will be no messy ink, and they will not have to wait in long lines. The new hire's data will be collected privately to insure the confidentiality of their personal information. The technician will scan their fingerprints and submit your data electronically. In most cases this takes 15 minutes or less! The results will be sent directly to the requesting school from CJIS within days of the submission.

All of our Fingerprint Technicians are certified, and have been subject to State and Federal fingerprint-based background checks. Our business will never be outsourced to third-party contractors to ensure all client information is maintained securely and confidentially by our own personnel. We serve the entire Rockville, Silver Spring, Germantown and Bethesda, MD community. Before school begins this fall, make sure all of your new hires have been rigorously vetted. That means electronic fingerprinting done by Maryland's experts!
