USAG Background Check Information
USAG is now ready to begin the background
screening process. The information will be posted on the USAG website and the
MD website will have info as well. There will be links on the site
in various places such as women’s program pages. This will link back to
the member services site. I have attached several of the documents
that USAG has sent out regarding this subject.
For now it is important for you to know the following:
Screening will be required for all December professional members. The
requirement will then continue month by month.
Ø
Beginning
Ø
Every following month the same rule will apply. That
is Members who expire in January must have the screening completed by January
31 and so on until we go through the roll-out of all 12 months.
Ø
Any member may go through the screening process at any
time prior to their membership expiration. If a member wishes, or their
employer wishes, that they get the screening done in advance, they may do so.
Ø
The anniversary date of the background screening will
be 2 years from the initial screening. This date does not have to be tied
into the membership renewal date. However safety and screening must always be
completed prior to the membership expiration.
Ø
The screening process will be made available to all
clubs, for their employees, within the very near future.
Thank you for your kind understanding and patience
with this most important matter.
