Criminal record check FAQ
Review frequently asked questions below about 秋霞伦理 criminal record checks.
As per the Criminal Records Review Act, students who will work with children or vulnerable adults need to complete a Criminal Record Check (CRC). However, before completing a CRC, please ensure you have received an offer letter stating a CRC is required for the program you plan on attending.
If you are unsure you need to complete a CRC, check with your Admissions Advisor, whose name and signature are on your offer letter. A CRC may also be required for some Continuing Education or credit courses.
If you will be working with children or vulnerable adults through 秋霞伦理 programs and have not been requested to complete a CRC, please contact dc_crc@douglascollege.ca.
The cost of running a CRC is $28 and the fee is non-refundable. A CRC requested using the 秋霞伦理 access code is the property of 秋霞伦理.

秋霞伦理 does not complete the Criminal Record Check requests. We receive Criminal Record Check results once they are processed by the Ministry of Justice. The link is to the Ministry of Justice online Criminal Record Check application system. We do not have access to information you have submitted online to the Ministry of Justice.
We do not accept criminal record check results from the RCMP or VPD. The Ministry of Justice criminal record check is the only one we can accept.
Yes. The process is similar to sharing your previous criminal record check with 秋霞伦理. The only difference is you need to use the organization鈥檚 access code instead of 秋霞伦理鈥檚. If they do not have an access code, you can come to Enrolment Services to request a paper copy of your criminal record check. This can take 2-3 business days to process. It is your responsibility to make sure the organization accepts our criminal record check result.
The $28 is charged by the Ministry of Justice for processing a criminal record search for practicum students. Unfortunately, it cannot be waived.
Contact your Admissions Advisor to let them know as soon as possible.
