Ah, you hadn't posted your specific area of certification. You would have likely been better off if you were going for a more general secondary certification where some of your BA/Masters classes would have counted (History classes, etc.). As BH posted, for elementary certification DoDEA will be looking for very specific teaching methods courses. O...See More

You can add other areas to your application even now, if you think you qualify.

I had the same for undergrad and my master's only stated graduated with distinction. Check your diploma. If you graduated with distinction, that is honors for graduate school.

Look at the back of your transcript. Mine actually described what each title meant. They went from using Latin to using English and explained the equivalents, so I knew which to check On the application.

Yes. The dependent refers to the students who are generally (but not always) dependents of active duty personnel. They don't really use DDESS anymore since we are all supposed to be DoDEA, rather than DoDDS for overseas and DDESS for stateside (so they should update the EAS).

I believe there are other government schools in Alaska. Someone here used to post about them. They are not with DoDEA, but related to the Native American population I believe.

I agree. I am definitely under the impression that Virtual School teacher are located at the hubs. I believe it is a time zone and technology issue.

Currently, teachers in DoDEA Americas (including Puerto Rico- not sure about Guam) can apply through EAS to work in other locations and are not part of the transfer round (Guam is in the transfer round). Teachers currently in DoDEA pacific and Europe can apply for DoDEA Americas, but not to move to another location within DoDEA Pacific and Europe. ...See More

ECE and SPED are very good areas for DoDEA overseas, so I would assume they would be pretty good for stateside as well.
It's always hard to predict how a principal will react in any situation. In my experience, principals with DoDEA do not seem to mind (and even appreciate it) if they know about qualified teachers moving into the area....See More

Apply in EAS as quickly as you can for that specific location.
Make sure you are state certified in at least two different states, so if you need to break your local district contract you will still have a state certification (without one, you might no longer qualify depending on your credit hours).

I'll keep looking for a listing (a lot of DoDEA sites seem to be down for maintenance today).
Based on the two different districts I've worked at with DoDEA, the job mostly entails overseeing compliance, auditing files (paper and electronic), answering email/telephone questions about procedure, paperwork etc. In theory they visit schools ...See More

Try Dodea.edu and look for the district you want to work. Search for the district office and you should find a way to contact that office They can put you in contact with their special education ISS. There is information at dodea.edu about the restructuring and that is where it shows how many of each type of ISS are at each location.
Hey everyone! So my wife is beginning the application process to the DoDEA and I had a few questions. First, I don't believe this will be a problem but I want to know if she is qualified enough to be considered a "good" candidate. She has her Master's Degree, is currently in her 5th year of teaching, and does multiple extracurricular activities(stu...See More

How would you suggest highlighting things like that? Not turning in a resume is kind of freaking me out. The system is almost too easy. Do you just list CCSS or being a teacher leader in the skills area?
HelpOthers
The College and Career Readiness/Common Core experience and PARCC experience can be highlighted in the narrative on the experiences page. This narrative location is a great place to list anything not already mentioned in the application. However, the characters are limited.

Couple of Questions
We DID receive a form from HR. It was really basic for me and the kids. Husband's was more in-depth. I can look to see if we have a blank copy still of the original for you.
HelpOthers
If you still need this, contact HR and ask for the form. They actually do need to send it to you, because there is specific information they need for your position. Your family members just need a doctor's note (Walgreen's letter, etc.) stating they are fit to travel/live overseas. I had my form completed at the local military facility. As a civili...See More

I concur with this. Make sure you are calling and asking questions at the staffing line. My HR rep ended up switching to someone else midway through my process and I didn't know until I called after a week of unanswered emails.

I scanned my fingerprint card and saved a copy before sending it. This might be something others want to try just in case.

Keep checking their website and USAJobs.gov. I do not think these positions are hired through EAS, so they are actually posted.
