About Certified Profile
Certified Profile is a platform that allows students to order their background check and submit immunization documentation online. Information collected through Certified Profile is secure, tamper-proof and kept confidential. Student background check results and immunization records will be posted on the CertifiedBackground.com website where the student, as well as the school, can view them.
Certified Profile also provides students with access to additional feeatures including document storage, portfolio builders and reference tools. Students will utilize some of these features during their professional program.
