Agents only needs to be referenced checked once by SIEBA, then all our members will be able to see that this check has been done and will not need to do the check again for themselves. This saves time and hassle for the schools and for the agents references. All agents who have been referenced checked by us will appear on a list for all our members to see on the website.

Reference checked agents will appear here.
