Wisconsin CEF Ministry Registration

Background Check Authorization
Following are some important considerations for all who will volunteer and have direct contact with the children through CEF ministries.
- CEF does online background checks utilizing a secure server so that your information is safe.
- All volunteers (age 18 and older) and CEF missionaries are required to undergo a national criminal background check.
- All approved workers receive a required nametag upon completion of steps 1-3.
- You will be redirected to a secure site to complete the screening process.
There are three steps required for volunteer participation:

STEP 1: PRIOR to COMPLETING THE ONLINE BACKGROUND CHECK APPLICATION

- Read the Statement of Faith www.cefonline.com/statementoffaith
- Read the Worker's Compliance Agreement www.cefonline.com/wca

- Watch the 12-minute "Protecting Today’s Child" presentation www.cefonline.com/childprotection or listen at 1-866-878-4182. This is to be viewed annually.
