Our Human Resources team is focused on enhancing compliance and security through comprehensive fingerprinting and I-9 audits. 

We successfully expanded LiveScan fingerprinting services to all 24 of LEARN's member school districts, ensuring that each district could readily access state-of-the-art fingerprinting technology. This expansion was pivotal in maintaining safe and secure environments for students and staff, as it allowed for more efficient and accurate background checks. The implementation of LiveScan technology streamlines the fingerprinting process, reduces turnaround times, and ensures that potential hires are thorough times, and ensures that potential hires are thoroughly vetted before joining the workforce. By extending these services across all member districts, we strengthened our commitment to creating secure educational environments and safeguarding the well-being of our school communities. 

Our team has expanded our I-9 audit service, meticulously reviewing documentation for our member districts. LEARN's Human Resources team developed a comprehensive approach to ensure all records are thoroughly examined to identify and correct any inaccuracies or missing information. This approach includes cross-referencing employee data with federal requirements, providing training sessions for district HR staff on proper I-9 completion and retention practices, and offering personalized support to address specific concerns or challenges. By enhancing our I-9 audit service, we help our member districts achieve greater compliance with immigration laws, reducing the risk of penalties and fostering a culture of accuracy and diligence within their administrative processes.
