Home Study

Home Studies are a document that licensing workers must upload to a resource before submitting it for approval for initial licensure. Home studies also need to be uploaded to a resource when the address on a license is changing. 

As a licensing worker, you can print a partially pre-populated home study from the main profile page of the resource. When the document has been completed, you need to upload it back onto the resource's profile page and select the document type as "Home Study". This is one of the things supervisors will check when reviewing the resource.
