FAQs About FDLE VECH Program Fingerprinting

The Volunteer and Employee Criminal History System (VECHS) program is a background screening initiative by the FDLE. It is designed to help organizations that work with vulnerable populations, like children, elderly adults, or individuals with disabilities, screen their employees and volunteers for criminal history.

Private schools interested in joining the VECHS program must first apply with FDLE to become a qualified entity. Once approved, the organization will receive an Originating Agency Identifier (ORI) number, which is essential for submitting fingerprints for background checks.

  • No, criminal history information obtained through the VECHS program is confidential and may only be used by the organization that requested the screening. Sharing such information with other entities, including private schools, is prohibited.

Yes, private school owners who have direct contact with students are subject to the same fingerprinting and background screening requirements as employees and contracted personnel under the VECHS program.

  • Private schools can work with authorized Livescan providers like IDENTICO to submit fingerprints electronically to FDLE. The Livescan system captures fingerprints digitally and securely transmits them to FDLE, ensuring accuracy and compliance.
  • Criminal history results are sent directly to the organization’s authorized representative. Access is restricted to the entity’s approved contact to maintain confidentiality and comply with state regulations.
