Volunteer registration

Registration of volunteers is done over the internet on a public page in the system. The page is divided into 7 sections.

• General information
  In this section the volunteer enters demographic information such as name, address, phones, e-mail, gender, date of birth.

• Skills
  In this section the volunteer enters information about skills that may be useful to the committees such as spoken languages, possession of a valid drivers license, other information useful to the committees.

• Availability
  In this section the volunteer indicates when he/she is available to be performing tasks for the committees.

• Health information
  In this section the volunteer can indicate if there are special considerations that should be taken regarding his/her health.

• Other information
  In this section the volunteer indicates what committees he/she is interested in working for, what tasks he/she is interested in performing, what size clothing should be issued.

• Security check
  In this section the volunteer must accept that the games administration performs a background check. If the volunteer does not accept this the application cannot be submitted.

• Login information
  In this section the volunteer enters a password. This password together with a login id that is issued by the system enables the volunteer to re-enter the system and review or change the information

When the volunteer submits the application all fields are validated and if no errors exist the volunteer is given a unique number and a status of registered before the information is stored in the database.

If the volunteer has entered an e-mail address in the general section an e-mail is automatically sent to the volunteer with information that the application is registered and the login credentials to be used to re-enter the systems.

The systems automatically logs the volunteer on with the issued credentials and reloads the page. The volunteer can now upload his/her picture to the systems.
