We require all members of the BFOA to have ongoing compliance with the Jessica Lunsford background check requirements. In order to achieve that goal we require all members to take the necessary steps to undergo the background check process and acquire a current vendor ID badge. BFOA will not accept your registration without a current Background Check Vendor Badge being on file. Getting a background check and vendor badge should be your FIRST STEP in the registration process.
Vendor badges Expire Every 5 Years if your badge has expired you must go through
the process again and get a new badge. School board employees and police officers
also need a vendor badge but may qualify for a reduced rate badge.
Effective July 1, 2015, the Broward County School Board has contracted with a new
vendor to provide fingerprinting and badge issuing services, fingerprinting at the
Kathleen Wright Building is no longer an option. Fieldprint Inc is now the approved
background check provider. This process includes checking fingerprints for criminal
activity in both local and national databases and issuing individuals a photo ID card.
Anticipate a minimum of a 2 week turnaround time. Fieldprint has multiple locations
around the county that you can visit to get your fingerprints taken. When making an
appointment to get fingerprinted you can choose the most convenient location to you.
New members without a badge, and members whose fingerprints were taken more than 5 years ago must re-apply
and undergo the fingerprinting process again. Follow these instructions:
