Common use of Appointment Requirements Clause in Contracts

Appointment Requirements. In keeping with the College’s Background Check policy, the Appointing Authority, (or designee) who is authorizing the appointment is responsible for conducting any applicable reference and pre-employment background checks; and obtaining documentation of appointee’s relevant qualifications, including transcripts, diplomas and credentials. It is the responsibility of the candidate/appointee to furnish requested documentation. Documentation will be retained in the Human Resources Office. In those cases where questions arise, the burden of proof concerning the validity of such documentation lies with the candidate/appointee, not the College. Criminal system background checks required by either state law and/or college procedure will be conducted by the Human Resources Office.
