Background check:ÌýCSEEP grant recipients are participating in an approved endorsement program that requires completion of early field experiences (practica). Regardless of the placement location of your early field experiences (practica), including your own classroom, it is required that you complete the Â鶹´«Ã½ clearance process before the deadline.ÌýPlease note that Teacher Education Services (TES) will drop any participant registered in SPED 415 and/or 611 if he/she has not met this requirement by the deadline.
This clearance process is explained on the Teacher Education Services website atÌý/success/academic/teacher-education/placement/background-checksÌýIt is essential that each element in the clearance is completed accurately, by following the instructions.ÌýPlease read each set of directions carefully.ÌýIf you have completed a portion of this clearance process at a previous time, you may send a copy of the results to Dr. Leigh Butler at the address below. Without a copy, all portions of the clearance process must be completed as described in theÌý. Grant participants are required to complete the process once while at Â鶹´«Ã½, unless they have a break in service requiring reactivation of their Â鶹´«Ã½ accounts. However, if a school division requires an additional clearance, you must complete the clearance requested by the school division or move to a different school division that will accept the Â鶹´«Ã½ clearance process.
