The E-Sign Act of 2000 passed into law the usage of electronic signatures in commercial transactions. Since that time, the Federal Trade Commission (which has the federal regulatory authority over screening companies) has weighed in with how electronic signatures can be implemented. Todd will talk about the standards that law and letter sets up, some "best practices" around the e-signing process, as well as specific areas in the screening processes that are affected by electronic signatures (education verifications, past employment verification, drug screens, etc)
