Online Volunteer Registration

tracy 4 years ago updated by Benjamin S. (Answers in Genesis - Technical Support Specialist) 4 years ago 1

Is there a way to direct our volunteers to sign up through a link that is not on the same page as the student registration/info page? We want to eliminate someone not in our church, who may want to volunteer from the community (have had people ask in the past), from signing up to volunteer. For safety reasons, we only allow those who have been going to our church for a certain amount of time and are background check to work in our VBS, but of course would love to send out a link to our background checked people to sign up online if desired. Is that possible? I may have missed how to do this, so figured I'd ask here. Thanks!

Hello Tracy,


I looked into your question about volunteer registration and student registration being separate. After your Public page is published and you are ready to activate Volunteer Registration, go to the Promote page and toggle on Volunteer Registration. This will activate a new Volunteer tab on the Public page as well as a public-facing form that will be separate from the student registration page.


After Volunteer Registration is activated, you can visit the form by clicking on the following link: https://rbclakeorg.myanswers.com/mystery-island/volunteer/

To obtain a higher level of privacy, one option would be to print out Volunteer Registration forms and then enter in the information of the volunteers manually. This option would be more time consuming, but would give you a higher level of privacy.  

There also is a way to change who is enrolled as a volunteer. If you click on the People tab, and then under Volunteers click 'Manage All Volunteers', this page will allow you to add, edit, or delete volunteers.

If you have any further questions, let us know.

Thank you for your patience in this matter,

Ben Sherrick
