I would call HR to double check. I took a class called mild to moderate intellectual disabilities thinking it would be ok since it had intellectual disabilities in it. They did not accept it. Definitely call to ask.
haha
Unfortunately it often seems to come down to the individual HR evaluator's discretion. There is no reason that class should not have counted for you based on their own recent practices and explanations (and if another person had your file it may well have).

Okay, thanks for the info! That stinks, but it is what it is.

Actually...from personal experience DDESS employees can use the gyms, water park (there is a fee for the water park) and pools on their locations (at least my location...I assume all state side too). Only location we are not allowed to use is the P/X and exchange unless you are a vet.

Redclover, since you are doing background check stuff, I assume you have a job offer. Would you say reaching out directly benefitted you? Did you get hired by someone whom you contacted directly?
Redclover711
In the case of the offer I received, I got an offer from a school that I had not contacted yet. So I don't really know if it benefitted me or not. All I can say is that by having the email, it may have made my name stick out on a referral list. However, in this case there was no email to check against since I had not sent one to that principal.

I read the below HR newsletter last night. In the case that dependency cannot be fully established, is there a difference between members of household and dependents?
haha
I believe to be on orders and be eligible for flights, SOFA status, base privileges etc they have to be determined to be dependents (using the guidelines outlined in the newsletter). When in doubt though ask HR for the current accurate info. because they unfortunately stopped the newsletters years ago.

So I think the requirements for fingerprints vary by what your state has/does for fingerprints. I live in Texas and here you go through the Department of Public Safety, get fingerprint card, and have to mail it to a different service for your check. Maybe Texas is just unique.
haha
My understanding/experience is that you have to mail in to HR and that DoDDS does not accept any state or other organization's background check.

It sounds as though you received a tentative offer and must fill out the background information and update some missing information so they can complete your in-processing and give you your firm offer. Does it say which job it is for? Usually in the tentative offer it will give you that info. Since SLPs are more challenging positions to fill, both ...See More

I am assuming it is for the job in Stuttgart, because HR keeps cc'ing the principal on all the emails that they send to me.

The current schools are named Perry (an elementary and a middle/high school). I believe they are adding an additional elementary school and middle school (both named Iwakuni) due to growth. I also understand that there is a new high school building replacing the old (but still going by the name Perry).
SandArt
Thank you, haha. I actually like the idea of going to a new school. I was part of a group that restructured a failing school once. Going to the school was tough because we heard over and over again, "This is how we've done it for years." People who have been at a school for 20 years sometimes have a hard time adjusting to change and new staff somet...See More

EQIP is your background check (making sure you aren't a criminal)

After my interview, only my current direct supervisor was contacted as a reference. The interviewing principal described the process at the end of the interview and said that if selected, this reference would be sent along with the selection paperwork as it is a requirement. I don't know if this is standard, but it sounded as though it is a require...See More
