4. Students who will be in practica or seeking employment should be aware of the following regulation:
Provincial legislation requires that new employees and volunteers in publicly funded agencies, residential services, and day programs are subject to a criminal record check. This means that a criminal record check will be required prior to employment in health care and social service programs in Alberta. Please contact the Human Resources Department of the agency at which you will be employed if you require further information.
Most agencies where students complete practica require a criminal record check and/or child welfare clearance of students. Students should be prepared to provide such documentation prior to the commencement of the course.
