The Customer

Crimson Education is New Zealand’s premier university admissions consultancy helping to remove the barriers of geography and legacy. Since being founded in 2013, Crimson has helped to transform the educational future of more than 100,000 students from over 60 countries. Levelling the playing field in university admissions, the education consultancy helps New Zealand students secure spots at some of the world's most prestigious educational institutions such as Ivy League, Stanford, MIT, Oxford and Cambridge.

Crimson aims to empower students by equipping them with the necessary tools and providing them with a launching pad to compete on a global education stage.

“What's true in New Zealand isn't necessarily true in Thailand, or in the UK, or Brazil, and we're in all these places. We need to be following best practices or the law in each of these countries. The challenge is finding a tool that actually services all those countries.” - Harry,  Legal and Compliance team

The Challenge: Compliance & Protection on a Global Scale

With operations spanning over 60 countries, each with its own unique set of regulations, Crimson Education faced the daunting task of maintaining safety and compliance standards for its students and staff on a global scale. They needed a reliable solution to help them conduct comprehensive background checks efficiently to ensure the safety of both staff and students, no matter where in the world they are.

The Solution: Securing Success with Seamless & Comprehensive Safety

Crimson Education made the decision to partner with Checkmate to streamline their global background verification processes. Checkmate was able to offer Crimson a secure and seamless experience helping to simplify background checks and verification and ensure a smoother, safer and more efficient hiring process.
