Qualifications/Requirements

CRIMINAL HISTORY BACKGROUND CHECK:

The Department of Public Instruction (DPI) is required by law to conduct a background check on each applicant for a Wisconsin educator license/permit regardless of whether it is an initial request or a renewal request. The primary purpose of a background check is to determine if the applicant has engaged in any behavior that endangers the health, welfare, safety or education of pupils.
Because a background check is a required step in processing all license/permit applications, all applicants must:

• Complete a Conduct and Competency questionnaire which is thoroughly completed, including all required documentation and information.
• If an applicant meets the requirements specified on the first question of the Conduct and Competency, submit fingerprints.
• If there is some type of misconduct that needs to be reported, you will need to prepare and attach a written explanation of what happened, and, when applicable, gather and SCAN complete copies of any related criminal complaint, criminal judgment, police reports, disciplinary letters/findings, correspondence, etc., as applicable. (Note: information printed from the CCAP web site is NOT sufficient)
• All supporting documents must be available for uploads as attachment in the online application system.

Failure to submit all necessary information in support of an application will result in a significant delay in processing and may result in denial of an application.

FINGERPRINT REQUIREMENT:

The following applicants are required to submit fingerprints to the Department of Public Instruction (DPI) when applying for a license:

• Applicants who have worked, resided, or physically attended classes in any of the locations listed below within the last twenty years (after age 17):
  • U.S. states other than Wisconsin
  • Listed U.S. territories (American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands, or Virgin Islands)
  • Canada
  • Great Britain (England, Scotland, or Wales)
• Applicants, who since their most recent submission of fingerprints to DPI have worked, resided, or physically attended classes in any locations listed above.
