Re: Volunteer Screening?
"Are there any exemptions for people screened through other processes?
The following is the only exemption: Adults who have been screened by a public school system to work with youth are exempt from the background screening and reference check process. (Those exempted and screened by a public school system may include currently employed teachers, other currently employed school employees, and current school volunteers.) The team leader should maintain documentation that the mentors have been screened by the school."
"What screening documentation does FIRST require?
FIRST does not require that you send the documentation to FIRST, nor do you need to bring it to events. FIRST will conduct random team audits to determine compliance and will require documentation at that time."
Both Quotes are directly from the FIRST YOUTH PROTECTION POLICY FAQ which I received today.
It looks to me like the screening we do through school will do the trick, be free for my team and keep FIRST happy.
Have a good holiday!
