FINGERPRINTING REQUIREMENTS

Volunteer Certification

Each adult who plans to volunteer at the school, do playground duty or have substantial contact with youth MUST:

(A) Become certified by completing the following four steps:

1. Register with Virtus Online at www.virtusonline.org/virtus/reg_0.cfm?theme=0. When you register, you will need to create a UserID and Password and enroll for a mandatory Child Protection Workshop. Volunteers must attend a workshop before your duties begin. 

To register for a Child Protection Workshop, go to www.adw.org/news/default.asp?eventtype=14.

(IMPORTANT NOTE: The name under which you register for Virtus must match the name you provide on the Volunteer Application Form under Step 2 and on the Criminal Background Investigation Authorization (CBIA) Form you are given under Step 4.)  The Archdiocese will give you credit for attending the class based on a    sign-in sheet available at the class.  Please be sure to sign in and please print your name clearly so you receive credit for attending.

2. Complete the two-page Volunteer Application Form, which is available for download/printing at www.adw.org/youth/pdf/cpp_volapp2006.pdf, and mail/deliver the signed hardcopy form to the Parish Compliance Coordinator (PCC), whose contact information is given below.  

(IMPORTANT NOTE: Steps 1 & 2 are interchangeable, but must occur before Step 4).

3. After receiving a Child Protection Policy Booklet from the training class or downloading the Booklet from www.adw.org/youth/pdf/cpp_english07.pdf, review the Booklet and sign and mail/deliver the Booklet’s Acknowledgment page (one of the last pages in Booklet) to the Parish Coordinator (Marylou McDonald), whose information is given below.  

4. After receiving a CBIA form from the Front Office of the school (or Marylou McDonald, if the school is closed), make an appointment to be fingerprinted.  See: www.adw.org/youth/pdf/cpp_fingerprint08.pdf for instructions/locations and dates for fingerprinting.
