During the four-day evaluation, every participant is subject to a Criminal Background Check. This policy is in line with our focus on employability. It is also to provide a safe environment for all of our students and associates.

Criminal background disqualifiers, for entering any training program, include (but are not limited to):

• Any misdemeanor conviction for an offense against property (including, but not limited to) theft, robbery, burglary, or money laundering within the 10 years prior to application.

• Any conviction for the attempt or commission of an offense against a person, including (but not limited to) kidnapping, battery or assault within the 10 years prior to application.

• Any conviction for the attempt or commission of a violent crime, including (but not limited to) sex crimes, murder, or a crime that resulted in death, no matter when it occurred.

• Any other convictions that are directly related to the job or service to which the applicant is applying. In making the determination, consideration will be given to when the conviction occurred, the frequency and severity of the crimes, and the age of the individual at the time the crimes were committed.
