  2. Once the application form is submitted, you will be taken to the required Statement of Agreement, which outlines IVP's purpose statement and doctrinal basis. You must submit your electronic signature on this document, and if you are hired, you'll be be asked to reaffirm each year. 
  3. Once the Statement of Agreement is signed, you will be taken to the third and final required document, the Consent and Release form. Check the boxes and provide your electronic signature to agree to the terms of employment.
