Driver Approval Process

The driver approval process consists of 6 steps. All employees and volunteers who are driving on parish/school business are required to complete this process. This includes any individual who drives their own personal vehicle for parish/school use, drives a parish/school owned vehicle, or drives a parish/school rented/leased vehicle. Drivers must be 21 years of age or older to qualify.

To be complete and approved all six (6) steps of the Employee/Volunteer Driver Requirements Checklist need to be completed in their entirety, including the Safe Environment Coordinators uploading specified documentation to Sterling.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: 10-15 Passenger vans are not allowed for use in the Archdiocese of Atlanta. There are numerous safety issues related to the use of these vans. The 15 Passenger Activity Buses are the best option if a vehicle this size is needed. Bus Max is the company that most of our parishes/schools use for rental of these type vehicles.
