This training would count for VC parents wanting to get certified
The Diocese of Lafayette is committed to ensuring a safe environment for all children against sexual abuse.
All clergy, lay employees, and volunteers 18 years and older whose work/ministry involves contact with children, shall:
(1) undergo initial education/training in the diocesan safe environment program. In addition, each calendar year, they will be required to attend a continuing education in-service on child abuse-related issues.
(2) undergo a criminal background check. Also, there shall be documentation of reference checks for all new employees and ALL volunteers.
On top of the Diocese of Lafayette requirements, St. Mary Magdalen requires high schoolers of any age who volunteer with younger children to also go through the training.
INITIAL EDUCATION/TRAINING - is required when (1) this is your first time or (2) if you were previously trained, but it has expired.
To speed up the time you are at the training, it would be in your best interest to log in to VIRTUS Online, create an account, and sign up for this same training session. Step-by-step instructions for this process can be found HERE. You will also be required to complete this paper form, however printing out the first 5 pages ahead of time, completing it, and bringing it to the training can help us have a more efficient training. If you do not complete these two steps before the training, you will be required to complete them in person at the training.
CONTINUING EDUCATION - this is a yearly requirement to re-certify training. Log in to continuing education HERE.
Please get in touch with the St. Mary Magdalen Safe Environment Coordinator, John Listi, with any questions:
