Requiring verification of your volunteers’ information ensures that your data within CERVIS remains current. After completing this bulk update, the next time each volunteer signs in to their profile or registers for an event, they will first come to a screen displaying all of the information you have on record, and asking them to verify that it is correct. If their information has changed, they can update it and proceed with event registration or logging in. Additionally, if you have added any required fields since they created their profile, the volunteer must answer the required questions while verifying their data. Finally, If you are using the Terms and Conditions and it has been more than a year since the volunteer last signed the terms or you have since changed the terms since the volunteer last signed them, they will be required to sign them again.
Once a volunteer has verified their data, they will not be asked to re-verify their data until this option is selected again by a user with Administrator, Leadership Team or Group Leader access. For many organizations, this feature is used once a year to ensure that they always have the current contact info and data on their volunteers.
