If you are seeking a certification from DODD as an independent provider or the CEO of an agency, you are required to have a criminal background check. These candidates need to have results sent directly to DODD.

If you are an agency provider, we are able to conduct the background checks for your potential employees and have the results sent directly to your agency.
