The CMG Safe Haven online training is replacing the VIRTUS training.

All school parent volunteers who have frequent, ongoing or recurring contact with students must complete SAFE HAVEN online training.

The training consists of 3 short training videos, followed by a few questions,  the program is approximately 60 minutes in length and will include a criminal background check that must be completed.

These trainings are available in both English and Spanish. There will no longer be any live training sessions, all Safe Environment trainings will be available online only.

• All new employees and volunteers will complete the Safe Haven online training program instead of  the previously required VIRTUS PGC training. The turnaround time for compliance approval is approximately two weeks.
• All individuals must complete the training and complete a background check prior to the start of employment and/or volunteer service.
• The 5-year anniversary date is still in place. Individuals who recently attended a VIRTUS training session will not be required to complete refresher trainings until they have met their 5-year anniversary date.
• As the 5-year anniversary date is met, individuals will need to log into CMGConnect with their previous personal VIRTUS User ID and 1234 as the password. Once the individual logs into their CMGConnect account, they will be able to change their password. If they do not remember the User ID, they may contact the following:

1.      Daphne Woods at 800.228.6108 ext. 2375 or [email protected]
2.      CMG at cmgconnect@catholicmutual.org

The following individuals below will now be required to complete Safe Haven online training as well:

1.      Individuals who have never attended training.
2.      Individuals who are currently due for refresher training and had not attended VIRTUS training.
3.      Individuals who are currently due and have not attended VIRTUS training.
4.      Individuals who are out of compliance or past due.
