Onboarding Roadmap - Teachers

Step 1: New Hire Recommendation Received by Human Resources

Congratulations!  You have accepted a position with our district.  We’re excited that you have chosen the Path to Amazing.

Step 2: Verify Hiring Eligibility

An Assistant Director of Staffing will review the hire recommendation for the following:

  • Background/fingerprint clearance
    • If you have not fingerprinted for TEA purposes or if your previous fingerprints are outdated, you will need to schedule and complete fingerprinting per an email you will receive.  If you do not receive an email, this means you do not need to fingerprint.
  • Texas teacher certification appropriate for grade level/content
  • Completed current administrator/supervisory reference forms
  • Meet minimum position requirements (i.e. years of experience, if applicable, proof of advanced degree, etc.)
     

Step 3: Hire Approval

The Assistant Director of Certification will validate your Texas teacher certification and will approve your hire.  You will receive confirmation of your start date via email, along with relevant new hire position details.

IMPORTANT – You may not report to your worksite until this email is received.

Step 4: Employee Profile Creation              

Your hire will progress to the HR Data Management Team where they will create your employee profile and will assign you an employee ID number.

Step 5: Schedule your I-9

As part of onboarding, new hires and rehires will need to schedule an I-9 appointment to verify your eligibility to work in the United States.  The link to schedule your I-9 will be sent to you via email.

Step 6: Set Up Network Access and Sign Contract

You will receive an email with instructions on setting up your CFISD network access, along with instructions on how to sign your contract. 

IMPORTANT – You must sign your contract before you can report to your worksite.

Step 7: Complete Onboarding

Upon signing your contract, you will receive an email with a link to complete new hire onboarding forms.  This is also the step in which you will set up your direct deposit.

Step 8: Employee Badge

New hires are eligible to receive their employee ID badge after they have completed and submitted their onboarding forms.

Once you have completed your onboarding forms, you should receive an email from our main Badging Office with instructions on how to make an appointment to pick up your employee badge.  Even if you have an employee badge, please sign up for an appointment so the Badging Office can may any updates if needed.
