Those who retire from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are not eligible to begin or continue LLC employment. • Online courses managed through BYU-Idaho and Ensign College include elements not found with other online educational institutions. The statements below note a few key characteristics. Please affirm you have reviewed and are willing to comply with each: I understand online instructors facilitate predeveloped courses and are required to utilize these resources as they have been created. Instructors may personalize through facilitation strategies and best online teaching practices. I understand the CES mission is to develop disciples of Jesus Christ and online instructors are expected to support this mission through their facilitation, mentoring, and outreach efforts with students. I understand a critical online instructor responsibility is to develop meaningful personal relationships with students in their courses. I understand online instructors must be able to commit to actively engaging in their online course at least five days a week (Monday-Saturday). I understand online courses may include students who have matriculated from the PathwayConnect program. These students often come from diverse cultural and educational backgrounds and may have developing language skills. • As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I must hold and be worthy to hold a current temple recommend to be eligible to receive an offer of employment from OLL Services LLC. As part of the employment consideration process, I authorize the Ecclesiastical Clearance Office of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the ECO) to verify with my local ecclesiastical leaders whether I hold and am worthy to hold a current temple recommend. I agree. I am not a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. • As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I also accept as a condition of ongoing employment that I will hold and be worthy to hold a current temple recommend, with the understanding that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints may adjust the criteria for a temple recommend from time to time. I agree. I am not a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. • As part of the hiring process, and before OLL Services LLC may extend an offer of employment, the ECO will contact ecclesiastical leaders of applicants for employment who are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to confirm ecclesiastical worthiness and eligibility for employment in the Church Educational System. In addition, the ECO will have ongoing contact with ecclesiastical leaders of all personnel who are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to confirm ecclesiastical worthiness. I authorize the foregoing contacts, disclosures, and assessments. I agree. I am not a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. • As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I understand my current and former ecclesiastical leaders and any general authorities with whom I may interview will discuss with the ECO my ecclesiastical worthiness and my eligibility for employment with OLL Services LLC, including a discussion of matters a priesthood leader would otherwise keep confidential (see Church General Handbook Sections 31.3 and 32.4.4, as they may be modified or amended) to the extent the confidential matters relate to the standards of employment established for personnel working within the Church Educational System, as they exist from time to time. I authorize the foregoing contacts, disclosures, and assessments. I agree. I am not a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. • The ECO clearance is separate from ecclesiastical endorsements provided by local ecclesiastical leaders. An ecclesiastical endorsement provided by a local ecclesiastical leader is one part of the ECO clearance. The ECO also considers factors such as public positions or statements related to leaders, doctrine, and policies of, and an individual's overall activity in, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The ECO indicates to the university whether applicants for employment and personnel are cleared or not cleared ecclesiastically. Candidates for employment in nonstudent positions at the university who are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints must receive a clearance from the ECO to be eligible to be considered for employment. As part of the clearance process the ECO contacts current and former ecclesiastical leaders concerning the ecclesiastical worthiness of candidates for employment in nonstudent positions who are members of The Church of Jesus Christ. The ECO clearance process for new hires verifies whether the individual holds and is worthy to hold a temple recommend and also assesses historical and current activity in The Church of Jesus Christ, religious behavior, and support for the teachings, practices, and leadership of the Church of Jesus Christ. Applicants for full-time faculty and certain administrative positions also interview with a general authority of the Church of Jesus Christ as part of the ecclesiastical clearance process. The ECO indicates to the university only whether individuals are cleared or not cleared ecclesiastically to be considered for employment by the university. I authorize the foregoing contacts, disclosures, and assessments. I agree. I am not a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
