The training course takes less than two hours to complete. If you have already completed the Live Scan with the Conference Office, simply send your Certificate of Completion to Joana.VanIderstein@nccsda.com.

Instructions for Completing Both Training and Live Scan

1. Complete the Training Course:

• Go to NCCSDA Volunteer Training Portal.
• Select the Volunteer Training Module and click Login.
• Create an account (even if you’ve completed Live Scan or used Shield the Vulnerable previously).
• Save your password—you’ll need it to log in for training and future access.
• Check your email for a confirmation message from Mandated Reporter Training. Click the link to verify your email (link expires in 24 hours).
• Once verified, log back into the portal and start the training.
• Complete the 10-question exam (80% required to pass). You can retake it if needed.
• Download and save your Certificate of Completion.

2. Complete the Live Scan Process:

• Return to the portal and complete the Live Scan application under "Church Volunteers."
• Take the application to a UPS Store or other Live Scan facility.
• You’ll be fingerprinted and may choose not to provide your Social Security Number (this will not affect the process).
• The facility will process your information, sign the form, and return it to you.
• Pay the Live Scan fee (varies by location—check local prices).

3. Submit Documentation:
Email your Certificate of Completion and signed Live Scan copy to Joana.vanIderstein@nccsda.com.
If there are any issues, Joana will contact you.

Note:
This is a one-time requirement for the Conference; training updates may be needed in the future.
