The 5 year rule does not apply to DoDEA teachers.
And while the conditional offer may refer to a one year tour or a two year tour, DoDEA teachers do not have tours or a DEROS, and currently there is no process in place for transferring to another location.
You should plan on staying in that location for ten years.

Thank you all. I searched for US UK sofa agreements and scanned through NATO. I'm not sure if I found the best document, but what I did find did not mention jobs or income for dependents. It does seem surprisingly like an episode of Meet the Beavers. I sort of thought that might be the case for a spouse and I really appreciate the honesty. It's wha...See More

Correction: I meant to say "Leave it to the Beavers", the tv show.

Here's a link to a recent job posting for an AP position in Puerto Rico. The requirements are pretty much the same no matter the level. https://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetail/621379800

That is true for most military installations in Japan. Starting the FAVN and quarantine in the USA will reduce the amount of time the dog needs to be in quarantine after arrival. Just make sure to follow all the rules. If you have everything done by a military vet, they are more likely to do everything correctly. We went through Banfield (PetSmart)...See More

Thank you, HelpOthers. It's a good idea to try and stay in base lodging as long as possible. I appreciate your thoughts!

As I drink my coffee this morning, I will share some of my story. I first found out about Dodea after I had been teaching for about 12 years. A co-worker told me about a friend who had taught in Korea for Dodea, and it intrigued me, as I am always up for adventures. So I applied for elementary positions, received a handful of referrals, and kept ad...See More

On my application, they have marked me qualified to teach Secondary Humanities and Social Studies.
haha
Those areas are fine but not necessarily great to have (e.g. lots of teachers/positions in those areas but also lots of candidates with those certs and/or current teachers with those certs who might want to move into those jobs).

As far as job requirements, you are much more than qualified enough for a substitute job. The logistics/requirements for getting regular access to base will vary by location though and you would have to look into the feasibility of that.

Is your EAS active? If so, are your original references still in there? As for HR, ask your secretary for a contact and start there. They are generally pretty good with passing you on to someone else if it is not their area of responsibility.
IsItFriday?
You've reviewed your EAS, and checked all the uploads, right.
But that's not actually your HR paperwork.
What you really need to do is check you eOPF - your personnel record. Get together with your personnel secretary, and have them show you how to do it.

Your response is more of an attack. An attack against me. I didn't take your job. I'm not blocking your conversion to a permanent position.
Please don't shoot the messenger.
When I read your response objectively, I don't see anything that supports the notion that HR should abandon the rules and convert you.

Anything is possible, but I've only heard/read about local hires (not necessarily just NTE's) being eligible for conversion to permanent status after 8 months (but two years seems more typical in reality).
The bigger/more relevant question for you should probably be why you are not on the local hire list for those positions. Have you doubl...See More

As far as I know, DoDEA teachers have never been subject to the 5 year rule. We have the opposite problem in that it is very difficult to NOT stay at your school, should you wish a change of scenery.
