== Policy Summary: Background Checks ==
PBEM volunteers often come into contact with vulnerable populations during a deployment, and volunteers have access to government-owned equipment and sensitive information. Therefore, '''PBEM requires all registered volunteers (NET, BEECN, and ATV) to undertake a criminal background check.''' The criminal background check is conducted at PBEM's expense, and completed every three years.
