Cecilia J. Lauby Teacher Education Center

Criminal Background Check (CBC) Requirements

All teacher candidates must submit an Illinois State Police fingerprint Criminal Background Check (CBC) to the Teacher Education Center before beginning any clinical experience. A CBC protects preK-12 students by verifying the teacher candidate has not been convicted of illegal activity.

CBC vendor clinics

You may complete your CBC fingerprint scan at any Livescan vendor site in Illinois, including the vendors below.

Results
  • Results are sent to Illinois State if the CBC form is submitted to the vendor at the time of service.
  • Allow two weeks from date of fingerprint appointment to CBC arrival and processing in the Teacher Education Center
  • If CBC form is not submitted to the vendor, results are sent to your residence, and a copy must be sent to the Teacher Education Center.
