Enrollment in student teaching courses is facilitated by the Office of Field Placements. By the end of the semester prior to student teaching, all student teachers will be registered. This approach is taken to ensure that student teachers are enrolled with the correct supervisor for their student teaching experience. A final check for the completion of all requirements for student teaching is also undertaken at this time.
Please contact Monica Kielar, at mkielar@roosevelt.edu, if you have any questions, or if you fail to see your enrollment in your student teaching course by the end of the semester before student teaching.

New Mandated Reporter Training and Form Completion Process
All Roosevelt University student teachers are required to complete an online training course for mandated reporters by the time of the first meeting of their student teaching seminar. This training includes:
A pre-training assessment (13 multiple-choice questions)
60-90 minutes of self-paced interactive training
A post-training assessment (13 multiple-choice questions)
A Certificate of Completion (which must be printed at time of completion)
Upon completion of the training, turn in your Certificate of Completion and a signed Acknowledgement of Mandated Reporter Status Form to the Office of Field Placements at either campus. Please staple your forms together. The Office of Field Placements will mail all completed forms to the Office of the Director of DCFS, as required by state rule.
Student teachers may not participate in the seminars that start on January 13, 2011 until they have turned in BOTH of the forms required to either Monica Kielar on the Schaumburg campus, or Dana Blanton on the Chicago campus.

TB Test and Criminal Background Check
State law requires that all student teachers have a current TB Test while student teaching. You are advised to call prior to going to any of the clinics listed on this information sheet. Please remember to bring a photo ID to the clinic, and return this completed form to the Office of Field Placements at either campus.
