    Fingerprinting & Background Check Services

    Security Services conducts preliminary background checks, fingerprinting, and issuing of ID Cards for PPS employees, contractors, interns, and student teachers.

Security Services staff are working remotely. We have created pathways, based on each type of badge, to submit your application for a background check and badge. It is very important that you follow the directions for your badge type!
