**psych**
And then, one must overlay the fact that it is wholely unclear how to extricate oneself from the ISS position. It seems impossible to get a straight answer: some say that ISS's can apply in the transfer round- and yet the PDS is the DSO, not a school. Yet others say (more credibly) that a MDR is required.

@**psych** I understand that the only way to participate in the transfer round is using your school-level certifications, like school psychologist, rather than as an ISS. The only way to move from one ISS position to another is through a Management Directed Relocation.

I applied for a special education early childhood position over seas.
My app has changed from pending to qualified...about 9 days ago.

1) You may be placed on a referral and may be contacted for an interview, if someone has a vacancy fitting your qualifications. However, usually only about three to five people at most are interview for a position, but several may be on the referral list and several more may not make it onto the list. If you are being hired from outside DoDEA, loca...See More

Not officially. There has been speculation that a principal could maybe put a note on your file or with HR that could negatively impact your future chances but it was never more than idle speculation and I know of people who have turned down interviews and later had interviews, offers, etc.
The only known consequences are for turning down ...See More

I have a few questions that I'm curious about if I were to get a job offer.... sorry in advance?
1. Transportation -Is there transportation available til you are able to get your license in the new country? Is it more common to ship your car or get one there? How does car insurance work? If you ship your car, do they have car repair place...See More

Thank you both!

I agree with what has already been posted.
1. When you arrive, you stay in temproary quarters and usually there is transportation available from there to work, like shuttles. You may have to do some walking.
You should be able to get a license pretty quickly, more quickly than your car arrives, so even when a car is transported, p...See More

In reading over my earlier comments, I want to correct a statement. When I said the first three months and the second three months, I meant to say the first 30 days and the next 30 days.

It's not like I have heard about any general trend or change of policy. I have heard of several locations where teachers used to have a choice and/or be required to live on base but that changed over the years as space became less readily available, housing on base was renovated, etc. I have also heard that in some locations it goes in a cycle (i.e...See More

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to my post. I've spent the last several days reevaluating my goals. Yes, haha, I think you're right ... I should look to certify as a math teacher. My family and I are living overseas and hope to stay overseas for the next few years so that limits my options for a certification program. Any recommendat...See More

I would definitely look into Teach Now/Teacher Ready if you haven't already. I'm pretty sure that neither program (and most programs in my experience) won't have a problem with an int'l school (IB or not).
Other than that, there are likely a lot of online programs that lead to certification. The other programs are likely to be a lot faster...See More

Personally I would keep emailing or calling. Email is good because if they say yes you have written proof. You want that before investing money in classes. IMHO. Good luck!

You are not alone. I have been dealing with the same for a few years. It's hard to get them and very hard to get them to confirm stuff or at least for me it has been. You have to email and email and email.
