Checkr Education Verification API is one of 56 APIs that [Checkr](https://apis.io/providers/checkr/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Education Verification. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, and an API reference.

Use an Education Verification to verify a candidate’s education history, and highest degree achieved. For this screening, candidates are asked to supply their degree, major, school, and the state in which the school is located. Checkr then attempts to verify the information. After three failed attempts (itemized in the logs), Checkr generates an exception, and asks the candidate to upload supporting documentation. Once the document is uploaded, the verification process will begin again. For more information, please see [Education Verification](https://help.checkr.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001863468) in the Checkr Help Center.
