LPCC-S Status Check
Refer to the LPCC Supervisor List. If you do not have a Supervision Training Expiration Date next to your name, that means you are entered in the eServices system as LPCC-S certified. Please log into your eServices account and print a certificate and you will see a gold star with the letter S inside reflecting LPCC-S status.
Updates for background checks
Pursuant to KRS 335.517, every application for initial licensure, and every application for reinstatement, is required to submit a national and state criminal background investigation to the Board. The criminal background investigation must be made by means of a fingerprint check by the Kentucky State Police (KSP) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The results must be sent directly to the Board by the KSP and FBI for the screening of applicants. The Board cannot accept the background check from the applicant. Please note you are required to pay the fee for these background checks to the KSP and FBI directly. A Board request for an ORI number has been made to the KSP, which is required in order for the Board to receive the background check directly. When the ORI number is assigned, a link to the application for a criminal background investigation will be provided on the website, along with instructions. Please check back for an update containing the application and instruction link.
