About CICIware
COMMERCIAL INVESTIGATIONS LLC
The National Association of Professional Background Screeners (NAPBS) exists to promote ethical business practices,
compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and foster awareness of issues related to consumer protection and privacy
rights within the background screening industry.

NAPBS accepted COMMERCIAL INVESTIGATIONS LLC (CI) as a member in February 2005.  NAPBS has membership
accreditation criteria that assures member companies, such as CI, meet the high standards the Association has
established.

NABPS members are required to abide by the Association’s established Code of Ethics.  Employees of member
companies shall:
  • Perform professional duties in accordance with the law and the highest moral principles.
  • Observe the precepts of truthfulness, honesty and integrity.
  • Be faithful and diligent in discharging professional responsibilities.
  • Be competent in discharging professional responsibilities.
  • Safeguard confidential information and exercise due care to prevent its improper disclosure.
  • Avoid injuring the professional reputation or practice of colleagues, clients or employers.

The Association provides relevant programs and training aimed at empowering members to better serve clients and to
maintain standards of excellence in the background screening industry.  CI’s President, Michelle Pyan, will be attending
the 2005 annual conference in April.  

NAPBS promotes a greater awareness among employers nationwide of the importance of conducting background and
reference checks.  David Hein, a NAPBS Board co-chair, states “It is estimated that fewer than 35% of employers are
currently screening their applicants.  Yet every day headlines across the country highlight the sometimes dire
consequences that may result when prospective employees’ backgrounds aren’t thoroughly checked.”

CI is excited and honored to be a member of NAPBS and associated with other background investigations organizations
that have the highest standards and ethical practices.  

When selecting a background investigations company to partner with for employment, volunteer or tenant background
investigations, look for the NAPBS logo to ensure the highest professional standards.  Better yet, contact CI and let us
assist you in your quest for the PROACTIVE TRUTH
