Please complete the below web-form if you believe that you may require a DBS Check for your research or placement as part of a course at Warwick.
If you are volunteering in a project with Warwick Volunteers, you will need to contact them directly to organise your check at volunteers@warwick.ac.uk. If you are a paid member of staff, your DBS Check will need to be completed by our HR department.
Once we receive your form, our Disclosures Team will assess whether the role that you are undertaking will require you to have a DBS Check, and will email you to let you know the outcome, or to request further information. If a DBS Check is required, you will then be emailed with instructions on how to complete the DBS application.
