Starting in July 2017 the Diocese of Little Rock has utilized CMG Connect, a safe environment training program developed by our risk management company, Catholic Mutual Group (CMG).

Who must be trained?

All employees and those volunteers that have contact with minors. Includes any volunteers participating in a field trip or classroom activity.
A background check is run based on the information entered into CMG Connect. For the background check, please note that the information you provide online is encrypted and cannot be shared with anyone else, and no paper copies are retained.

How do I get trained?  

Go to CMG Connect, create a new account and complete the “Safe Environment Curriculum — Little Rock”. 
Under “I participate as a” check School Volunteer and any other positions that may apply.
Training videos end with the Background Check section.

Once you have completed the Safe Environment Curriculum, send a copy of your certification to gmoody@icsnlr.org

• If you are requested to drive for a school event, you will be asked to complete the CMG Safe Environment and Defensive Driving curriculums. 

What if I was previously trained on CMG Safe Environment?
Every 5 years Recertification with CMG Safe Environment is needed to keep your account active. 
Users scheduled for five-year recertification will be notified how to do that by their parish/school CMG Coordinator.
For more information, see Five-Year Renewal Instructions.
