someday
I have a Masters in science education and they initially denied me science. I had over 70 hours in science between all of my degrees. I just resubmitted the same transcripts and stated that politely. Just resubmit and let them know what to look for. You could also give them a call and see If you can speak with whomever worked on your file.
haha
That does sound strange and I would definitely ask HR for clarification. AP Government is a separate endorsement and has never been (and still is not) one of the published required SS classes.
Giving you Secondary English but not MS is also very strange since Secondary requires MORE hours. I would try very hard to get the evaluator on the ...See More

Thank you all. It appears that they have changed some of the classes, so I am going to take a few and hope for the best.

Jay, you can email the course descriptions to your case manager and he or she can tell you whether or not it will work for qualifications and in what area.
Hi all, it's probably a common question, but I see no search function on this site. I'm trying to figure out if the cut in pay I would get on a DODEA job would be compensated by an OCONUS different tax treatment.
I know that there is a tax exemption (~$80K?) for people working abroad, but does it apply to DODEA employees? If yes, how does...See More

You're not wrong. We all pay US federal taxes. Some teachers still have to pay state income tax, depending on your home of record/permanent address back in the US.

Hi all. I apologize for the late reply. Thanks for all who replied, especially for the link to the pay rates. From what I can see, step 1 with a Master's degree is about 47K's. To answer T.Rob's question, I'm in CA but not with DODEA; completely different pay system. I would have to find out if changing state residence would be warranted, since I m...See More

I'm wondering if anyone knows if there is a way around taking "methods in teaching" courses in several subjects to be a qualified candidate? I'm also curious, if you've been marked as "unqualified" do they give you ALL of the reasons? I was marked as "unqualified" because of not having the above mentioned courses and I'm wonderi...See More

Here are the relevant regs: https://aoprals.state.gov/content.asp?content_id=250&menu_id=81,
but it sounds like a question for HR just to be sure. You can also try writing someone through the contact email for TOPS.

Couple of Questions
I would try contacting HR as haha suggests. That being said, my husband is completing his 2nd year with DODEA. This is our RAT year and we've submitted everything for our orders to travel home this summer, but we're on hold because of the budget, too. Just remember, if you buy the ticket on your own and submit for reimbursement, the travel must be ...See More

Don't be concerned, but make sure you apply through USA Jobs too. Do not ignore the posting.
Hopeful
The posting in USA Jobs explicitly states that you need to apply through EAS.

Sounds fairly tricky and complicated. None of them sound like great options for you, frankly.
You might want to start with trying to get the evaluator to finalize your application without the reference from your former principal. Generally, they will be looking to make sure your EAS is complete, not to be making negative comments about que...See More

I had a similar experience with HR stating that the reference needed to come from my evaluator. In DoDEA, that is your principal. I suggest calling the HR person without saying who you are and telling them your situation to find out the best option.

There are a lot of different things going on here, some of them slightly contrdictory.

You may not have been chosen, specifically because you did not list Japan.

It is basically the same as anywhere else in DoDEA. What exactly do you want to know?

You only go to the institute for the ap course you want to teach. I am ap biology (not ap science). But they also could ask if you are willing to take a course before they move you out.
Ida
I was recently told that you must attend AP training for every subject you want to teach. The strategy then became to take them one summer at a time. It does go toward re certification hours and as mentioned makes you more marketable.
