Re: Volunteer Screening?

One last comment...

The Document on line states:

A background screening and reference checks (sic) must be conducted on any adult electing to participate as a Team Mentor in a FIRST program for the first time. (emphasis added....) A background screening must be conducted every other year for adults returning to participate at (sic) a Team Mentor to ensure that records are current.

This would indicate that reference checks are NOT required for those who have already been a Team Mentor before and that background screening must be done every other year for everyone. FAQ says that All Team Members must be screened. ( I presume that this means student members over the age of 18 must also be screened?) So screening and reference checks are two different things...

I am interpretting this as follows:
No reference checks for anyone except NEW mentors...
Screening for everyone... including student members over 18

I think this is consistent as the team acts as its own reference checks for mentors that have worked before... otherwise we could just put down three mentor names as references and during a meeting say " Does anyone have any objections to this person being a mentor? " none seen he is admitted....

Anyway... any thoughts???

The original document DID say that the checks must be conducted on adults electing to participate as a mentor for the first time... one could interpret that as saying that everyone is grandfathered in... at least for this year

?????
