Alliance Risk Group is proud to announce that Teresa Goodwin, MBA, FCRA Basic, Administrative Supervisor of the Background Investigative Division, has received FCRA Basic Certification from the National Association of Professional Background Screeners. Ms. Goodwin’s certification makes her an expert in compliance and best practices with a basic knowledge of FCRA regulations. She completed a series of webinar trainings and passed a certification exam that required a score of 80% or higher to pass.

FCRA Certification means that Alliance Risk Group is staying abreast of the increasingly complex laws that impact background screening. Alliance is committed to thoroughly understanding FCRA laws, which mitigates non-compliance problems with obtaining and using information contained in a background check.

According to their website, the National Association of Professional Background Screeners (NAPBS) exists to promote ethical business practices, compliance with the FCRA, equal employment opportunity and state and international consumer protection laws relating to the background screening profession.
