Clicking on the Online Application button on the Attended Kiosk opens a new browser window containing your facility’s on-line volunteer application.

Online Volunteer Applications are a two-step process; the first step requires applicants to enter vital personal information about themselves, including which facilities for which they would like to volunteer. The second step presents the applicant with a list of preferred activity options obtained from your Activities Management settings. This way, Administrator-level operators can include facility-level activities as valid Preferred Activity options.

Once an application has been submitted, operators with the appropriate authority can accept (or reject) the prospective applicant. This can also be done automatically. The remainder of this chapter describes the fields of the online volunteer application in further detail.
First, select the language for which you want to view the the volunteer application. All volunteer application content will display in the language you select. Operator-generated content such as facilities, activities, and availability will display in the language in which they were written.

Volunteer applications are protected by the Federal Fair Credit Report Act (FCRA) when third-party information is used in the evaluation of said application. The applicant can either freely give their consent for background checks with the understanding that the information obtained is subject to the protections of the FCRA and any applicable state laws or deny consent for use of background checks, understanding that their application may be rejected based on this decision.
