If not Current, Complete the Utah Educator Ethics Review

You must have completed the Ethics Review within one year of licensure, so it's possible that the Ethics Review that you completed in order to apply for your program will need to be renewed. Complete or renew your Ethics Review in the USIMS system: usims.schools.utah.gov

If not Current, Complete a Background Check

You will need to have a background check completed prior to your application for your Educator License. Background checks are valid for a period of five years before licensure.

If you hold a current teaching license, you will not have to complete another background check. We cannot accept copies of background checks done for a school district or other employment. To apply for a background check, go to USIMS and sign in or sign up: usims.schools.utah.gov
