This page explains how Find Your Edu Today approaches fact-checking policy across our coverage of education and career-pathway guidance. We publish these standards openly so readers, sources, and partners can understand exactly how our content is produced, checked, and maintained. We hold every article to a consistent standard of accuracy, clarity, and usefulness, and we correct errors openly when they occur.
How we verify claims
Every factual claim in a Find Your Edu Today article is checked against primary or authoritative secondary sources before publication. Where a statistic, figure, or rule is cited, we trace it to its origin — an official body, a peer-reviewed study, published data, or a named expert — rather than repeating it from a secondhand summary. When a claim cannot be independently verified, we either omit it or label it clearly as an estimate, projection, or opinion.
Sourcing standards
We prefer primary sources over aggregators, current sources over outdated ones, and independent sources over promotional material. When we rely on a single source for a significant claim, we say so. We avoid presenting contested matters as settled and, where credible experts disagree, we represent the range of views fairly.
What we do when we are unsure
If our team cannot confirm a detail to the standard above, we hold the claim back rather than publish it. Uncertainty is disclosed in the text, not hidden. This is deliberately conservative, and we consider it a feature of trustworthy publishing rather than a limitation.
Reader participation
Readers who spot a factual problem are encouraged to contact us through our contact page. We read every message and treat credible reports of inaccuracy as a priority, handling them under our Corrections Policy.
