If you have not been trained before: 

• Create a new account.

•  Select “Denver (archdiocese)” as your archdiocese/organization. Select Immaculate Heart of Mary as your volunteer location.

• From your home page, click “register for upcoming session” to sign up for an in-person class. You can attend any training in the Archdiocese of Denver unless there are restrictions listed in the notes.

• Virtus training must be renewed every 5 years.

If you have completed safe environment training in the past: 

• Contact your Virtus administrator to activate your account and provide your username.

• From your dashboard, you can see whether any items are pending or expired.

• If your training is expired, you can complete an online refresher module, or you can register for an in-person class.

The code of conduct is a document outlining archdiocesan policies for staff and volunteers. 

It must be re-signed whenever an update is made.

Please read and sign digitally via your Virtus account. You should be auto-prompted to sign upon login. Otherwise, you should be able to access it via the required documents button on your dashboard.

Do not turn in a hard copy.
