➡️Background checks & Ministry Safe
Ministry Safe training
- FPC should send the potential volunteer the link, but we have to track who has had Ministry Safe training. FPC does not keep track of that.
- If have access to FPC database (“Ministry Platform”), assign the role “Children’s Worker” role to volunteers who need a background check & Ministry Safe training.
- At First Pres they have physical printed copies of the incident forms in every drawer in the nursery. if one is filled out you have a completed one, hand or scan & email it to Assistant Leader for Welcome team.
- FPC requires background check with kids
- When there is new volunteer, make sure they all have one another’s phone number and know that they are to find their own sub.
- We need to tell the childcare team that parents are not allowed in the room. If the parent wants to take their child, they can do that, but the parent cannot come in the nursery.
If have access to FPC database (“Ministry Platform”), assign the role “Children’s Worker” role to volunteers who need a background check & Ministry Safe training:
- In MP, go to Groups, then search International Link.
- Click on your volunteer group.
- Click on the Participants tab.
- Either click on the people you need to have background checks one at a time, click edit, then change their Group Role to Children’s Worker.
- Or, click the checkbox next to everyone who needs a background check, then click Actions, Assign, click the checkbox next to Group Role, choose Children’s Worker, click Assign at the bottom.
