Praesidium Inc.

With over two decades of experience, Praesidium  is the leader in abuse risk management and has worked internationally to help schools manage their risk of sexual abuse and misconduct. 

Background Screening  

Your first line of defense      against sexual offenders is to keep them out of your school.  Deciding who has access to your students is one of the most serious decisions you make.   

Praesidium's background screening services help ensure your staff and volunteers haven't been convicted of a crime and are who they claim to be.  Industry best practices recommend that private schools check backgrounds of any employee or volunteer, including parents, who will work closely with students on a regular basis. 

Background screening is just the first step in protecting your students from abuse.  Through our partnership with Praesidium, SOS Schools receive preferred pricing on additional abuse prevention services, including:

• Onsite Workshops
• Online Abuse Prevention and Harassment Training
• Policy Analysis
• Screening & Selection Resources
• Youth Education Curriculum
• Risk Assessments
• The Praesidium School Accreditation Program

 Criminal Background Review Sample Procedure &  Suspected Abuse by an Adult can be found in our HR Library.
