criminal record

a young person committed a crime and was told that in two years if they kept out of trouble it would be wiped? is this correct? and also how can they check that they don't have a record for themselves? They are being told to disclose their past at every opportunity, as the Youth Worker involved I have concerns about their future prospects if they keep this practice up. Can you advise best practice on this issue
