Frequently Asked Questions
What does a WorkPro Qualification Check verify?
A WorkPro Qualification Check verifies a candidate’s qualification details with the relevant institution or authorised source. This may include the candidate’s name, institution attended, qualification obtained, graduation date, and other available academic record details.
Does WorkPro check both local and international institutions?
Yes. WorkPro supports qualification checks for Australian, New Zealand, and international institutions. Through My eQuals, WorkPro connects to 100+ education providers across Australia and New Zealand, with leading universities typically checked within minutes. For all other institutions, WorkPro continues the process through First Advantage.
How fast are Qualification Check results returned?
Turnaround times depend on the institution. Through our My eQuals partnership, checks against integrated AU/NZ universities are typically returned within minutes. For all other institutions, turnaround can vary depending on how quickly that institution responds.
Can I track the progress of each check in real time?
Yes. WorkPro provides dashboard visibility for Qualification Check requests, allowing teams to monitor progress from submission through to completion. Status updates are available within the platform as the check moves through the workflow.
Is the Qualification Check process fully online?
WorkPro supports an online process for requesting, tracking, and receiving Qualification Check results. Candidate information and check records are managed through the platform as part of the workflow.
What information does a Qualification Check report include?
A Qualification Check report includes the information returned by the institution or authorised source for the qualification being verified. This may include qualification details, institution confirmation, graduation dates, and other available academic record information.
Why are Qualification Checks useful for compliance and hiring accuracy?
Qualification Checks can help organisations confirm whether a candidate’s stated credentials align with information available from the issuing institution or authorised source. This can support recruitment decisions, role suitability assessments, and workforce compliance processes where formal qualifications are required.
Can the system handle multiple checks at once?
Yes. WorkPro can support multiple Qualification Check requests at the same time. Dashboard visibility can help teams manage higher-volume hiring or screening activity more efficiently.
Does WorkPro offer visibility for compliance teams?
Yes. WorkPro provides central visibility over Qualification Check requests, status updates, and results through the dashboard. This can help HR, recruitment, and compliance teams monitor screening activity in one place.
Can a Qualification Check be combined with other WorkPro background checks?
Yes. A Qualification Check can be combined with other WorkPro background checks as part of a broader screening workflow. This allows organisations to build screening requirements around the needs of a specific role.
How do candidates participate in the process?
Candidates provide the required information online as part of the Qualification Check workflow. WorkPro then uses that information to complete the verification with the relevant institution or authorised source.
How do I get started with WorkPro’s Qualification Check?
You can get started by contacting WorkPro to discuss your Qualification Check requirements and setup options. Once your account is active, your team can begin requesting and managing checks through the platform.
