Criminal Background Check Policy and Requirements by County
One of the teacher education requirements before beginning professional coursework is completing a criminal background check as part of the pre-service certification application process. This is a requirement for individuals who will be working with children. At the time of application for student teaching, student teachers are asked to self-disclose any change in their criminal background history. If required by the school district where the student teacher is placed, student teachers must make themselves available for and pay any fee for any level of criminal background check required by the school system.
A background check is required before the start date of placement. For additional information, please email educationplacement@valdosta.edu or call 229-219-3535.
