Acceptable Background Checks and Disqualifying Offenses

Qualified Education Service Provider applications and renewals for the 2024 - 2025 school year now require an attestation that all personnel associated with the service provider have completed current criminal background checks. 

Acceptable background checks include but are not limited to a federal (FBI) background check or a state Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) check.

The Ohio Attorney General's website also lists locations available for background checks and costs for each. 

Disqualifying and barring offenses can also be found through the links below.
