Wetaskiwin, the city of Alberta, validates Alberta criminal record checks. These are Police Information Check (PIC) and Police Information Check with Vulnerable Sector (PIC-VS). These police checks play an important role in ensuring the safety of the city as these screen criminal profiles of applicants. Therefore, certain employment settings or community service settings may necessitate an interested individual to provide one of these police checks based on requirements.
PIC is usually considered a basic check that evaluates the criminal profile of an individual in specific positions of work, volunteering, or academia (student). Details on convictions, non-convictions, and such eligible cases are presented. To provide these details, queries are run over the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC), SENTRY, and even JOIN.
PIC-VS is an extensive police check that also evaluates any record suspensions over sexual convictions along with the criminal profile of individuals in specific positions of work or volunteering where any specific level of power or trust exists concerning the Canadian vulnerable sector. To provide details for PIC-VS, queries are run through CPIC, SENTRY, JOIN, and even other data stores such as one for sex offenders. You can only apply for this police check via the Wetaskiwin Detachment Office. There are no provisions for online application.
