STEP 2: APPLY ONLINE

If you have prepared the information requested in Step 1, it will take you approximately 15 minutes to complete the online application. Note: The system will time out after approximately 10 minutes of no activity and you must complete the form within 40 minutes.

Please go to www.ministryopportunities.org/CEFOOGPC to complete your online application and background check.

**Online parental consent for reference checks is required for applicants under the age of 18.**

IF YOU ARE A MINOR:
- After you enter your birth date a pop-up notification will appear. Your parent/guardian must click OK and you can continue with the form.
- At the end of the form, your parent/guardian must be the one to check the "I Agree" box and enter the child's full name as a signature.

STEP 3: ID CHECK AND INTERVIEW

This final step will be completed by your local CEF® staff member prior to serving.
- You will be required to show a photo ID (driver's license, passport, or school ID) and answer a few interview questions.
- Once this step is complete, you will receive your nametag, indicating that you are a screened volunteer.
