How to obtain Mandated Background Clearance Certifications
In order to volunteer with TechGirlz, you’ll need to complete a background screening.
Please note: Volunteers under the age of 18 only need to fill out this form and email it to [email protected]. All other volunteers will follow the instructions below.
What you should know before applying for background screening:
- This is a standard background screening for any volunteer activity regarding minors.
- You login directly into the screening website yourself and input your information. All of your data remains private to you.
- Only TechGirlz approved personnel has access to the reports to make sure all of our volunteers are cleared before they attend a program. The report only shows previous addresses and an overall “No Record” status. Your Social Security Number is not displayed on the report.
- The search includes:
a. SS# Verification & Address History Trace
b. National Criminal Database Search (with Re-Verification of positive records)
c. National Sex Offender Registry Search (AKA National Search)
d. (1) County Court Search (last county from SS# address trace) - Volunteers will pay a $22 fee for this service.
