Volunteers — Annual Registration

Action Required Reminder

Annual Volunteer Registration is required for all school volunteers.

To ensure the safety and security of CBE students and staff, all volunteers must be registered with the school each school year before participating in volunteer activities. The Annual Volunteer Registration Form is valid for the current school year only.

All volunteers, including returning volunteers, must complete a new registration form for each school year before participating in volunteer activities.

Registration Process

Parents and guardians can register as volunteers through the SchoolEngage tab in their MyCBE account or ask the school office for a paper copy.

As part of the registration process, all volunteers must review the POPA requirements and sign to indicate their agreement with the conditions outlined in the form.

Please note: Along with the yearly volunteer registration form, all volunteers must also have a valid police clearance. Police clearances are valid for five years and are available at no cost when the process is completed through the school.

New This Year

Community members who do not have a child registered with CBE must complete their volunteer registration in person at the school where they wish to volunteer.

This change allows school staff to verify that volunteers have reviewed and acknowledged their privacy obligations under Alberta's Protection of Privacy Act (POPA).

Parents and guardians can access the form through the SchoolEngage tab in their MyCBE account. Community members without a child in the system should contact the school where they wish to volunteer to complete their registration in person.
