Child Protection Registry Clearance

All students taking a course with a field placement must have a Child Protection Registry clearance on file in the Office of Clinical Studies before the first day of the semester. Students will not be permitted to go to a field placement if they do not have this clearance. This clearance is valid for five years (with the exception of the Christina School District; they require the CPR clearance to be within one year of your placement).

The Child Protection Registry (CPR) clearance can be completed by submitting a Child Protection Registry Form to DSCYF. Step by step instructions can be found at Child Protection Registry Clearance or picture by picture instructions at Child Protection Registry clearance.  Please download the consent form before starting the process.
