LiveScan clearance requirements vary by college. LiveScan is
costly and not always easily accessible. This is a barrier for
our EDU fieldwork students.

Another possibility is requiring a Certificate of Clearance.
LEAP work group members would like to require a Certificate
of Clearance if consistent funding can be secured to support
students with this cost.

LiveScan
$70-100 per LiveScan
LAUSD requires mandatory LiveScan for Practicum class
LAUSD will pick up LiveScan fee for first 30 students (from a
college site)
Site specific, but can get LiveScan through the college (SMC)
Consistency with where to get LiveScan
Equity issue (LiveScan - student equity funds? Perkins? Where
else can the COC be funded? Do we have something like CDTC
for EDU?)
How are TPP students being supported? Can we leverage this?
Some LiveScans are more comprehensive than others: Some
are FBI/DOJ some are only FBI
Long time ago- campus would hire students who were
completing fieldwork and campus would LiveScan students.
LiveScan fee waivers are needed – CDTC for EDU

Certificate of Clearance
$50 cost to students

Maybe something we consider recommending/requiring
for our fieldwork students
lasts 5 years so they will transfer with it to 4 year
