Arizona: 🌟 MMR Immunity Overview
What Is It & Why Is It Needed?
The MMR vaccine protects against Measles, Mumps, and Rubella.
It’s important for people of all ages, but you should always consult your healthcare provider to confirm if it’s right for you
Why Zen Educate Requires It
Since Zen Educate partners with many school districts, all educators must provide proof of two MMR doses. This helps reduce the risk of disease spreading when working closely with students.
Ways to Show Immunity ✅
1. Vaccination Records 📄
- Born on or before 1957 → assumed immune, no proof needed
- Born 1957–1990 → likely received only one dose
-
If you can’t find records, you may need a Titer Test or another vaccine dose
2. Titer Test 🧪
If you think you received both doses but have no records, you can take an MMR Titer Test to check immunity.
3. Getting the Vaccine 💉
If no records exist or full immunity isn’t confirmed:
- You may choose to get vaccinated again
-
You can request a MMR Vaccination Voucher through your Zen recruiter
4. Medical or Religious Exemption 🩺
If you qualify for an exemption, you may submit an exemption form located under 'MMR Immunizations' on your Zen Educate profile

When to Consider a Titer Test:
- You can’t find vaccination records
- You believe you received two doses but have no physical or digital proof
- You’re open to getting another dose if not fully immune
