Currently, applicants for licensure as a polygraph examiner must apply in writing to the Board of Polygraph Examiners and the application contains requests for certain information as determined by the board.
This bill would require applicants to submit to two complete sets of fingerprints to the board; would require the board to submit the fingerprints to the Alabama Bureau of Investigation (ABI); would require the ABI to forward a set of the prints to the FBI for a national criminal history background check; would require written consent by the applicant for the release of the criminal history background information to the board; and would require the applicant to bear the costs of the background checks.
