Learning about someone’s criminal history can be accessed online, and the St. Cloud Police Department wants to help people use it. The police department will conduct several public education sessions on public records information that’s available online. The first session will be held Friday at 2:30 pm in the public training room at the St. Cloud Police Department.

The sessions are intended to educate people about the online public records, like criminal history and offender registries, that are available to the public. The information can be used for many purposes, including screening volunteers, potential tenants or new employees.

The sessions will be held in the public training froom at the St. Cloud Police Department and on the following dates:

Friday, May 14 – 2:30-3:30pm

Monday, May 17 – 7:00-8:00pm

Thursday, May 20 – 2:30-3:30pm

Wednesday, May 26 – 7:00-8:00pm
