ECRIS (European Criminal Records Information System)...Too Good to be True?
Thursday, December 18
11:00am - 12:00pm ET
Click here to register!
Track: International
What you'll learn in this session:
Is a “European” criminal search a real thing? Can it be used for employment decision making? Does it have any impact with criminal searches outside of Europe? The answer to these questions, as always in the industry, can be complex. The goal of this session is to outline what ECRIS is and - more importantly – what it is not.
