Professional Position Evaluations

 

Trustforte is the world's leading provider of educational credentials equivalency evaluations, analytical reports which determine the equivalency in the US educational system of a candidate's foreign academic and professional credentials. Our evaluations are recognized as among the most accurate and informative assessments of foreign credentials by the US Citizenship and Immigration Services, the US Labor Department, US Consulates, professional advisory boards, international academic advisory organizations, and American universities.
 
Professional Position Evaluations analyze the proposed job to be held by the candidate in the context of the industry, size and business activities of the company, job duties, managerial responsibilities, and educational prerequisites. Trustforte's evaluators assess whether the position typically requires a bachelor's-level degree in a specialized field, qualifying as a "specialty occupation." Additionally, the position evaluation determines whether the candidate's educational and/or professional background qualifies for the proposed position of employment.
