Case Study: The Education Network achieves faster candidate placements and increased revenue with GBG’s Criminal Record Checking service

The Education Network boosts revenue and cuts administration with GBGroup’s Criminal Record Checking service

The Education Network, a UK education recruitment specialist, faced slow, error-prone DBS/Disclosure checks that relied on handwritten paper applications and could take up to six weeks to process. To meet safeguarding rules and speed candidate placement, The Education Network needed a faster, more reliable criminal record checking solution—so they turned to GBG’s Criminal Record Checking Service.

GBG implemented its online Criminal Record Checking Service (with optional Update Service), cutting paperwork and catching errors immediately so applications can complete in as little as 24 hours. The GBG service delivers a 99.97% online success rate versus ~10% error rates on paper, saves weeks of administration, enables faster candidate placements and increased billings across locations, and provides ongoing monitoring and strong customer support.
