Oakland Schools District Service Report 2012

Human Resources
In addition to building and maintaining
positive employee relations by
supporting the goals, mission and vision
of Oakland Schools, Human Resources
supports the work of our local districts
through processing certifications,
supporting new mandates on
fingerprinting for all school employees,
and job postings, for local districts
participating in the Oakland Human
Resources Consortium (OHRC).
Certification Approvals
During the 2011-2012 school year,
Oakland Schools processed certification
approvals for Oakland County school
districts as indicated in the table at
right. Temporary approvals are for
persons who are going to school
working toward a certain Special
Education endorsement or approval.
Approvals are for school social
workers, Special Education directors
or supervisors. They are not an
endorsement on a teaching certificate
but rather an approval letter from the
Michigan Department of Education.
Oakland Human
Resources Consortium
The Oakland Human Resources
Consortium (OHRC) is a consortium
of Oakland County school districts
dedicated to the recruitment, selection,
employment, and professional growth
of quality educators and other school
district employees. When candidates
submit their applications through the
online process, they are entered into the
OHRC database and made available to
all districts in the Consortium.
