It looks as if the EAS system is still down. It makes it a little difficult to meet the deadline of February 26th to update everything for the new school year. Any word of when it will be fixed?
IcanreadFor the virtual school, you must live in or move to the area where the hub you are hired for is located. The Hubs are in Virginia (I believe), Okinawa, and Germany. You are not able to work remotely from anywhere.
Hi Everyone. Does the DODEA contact previous employers? Or just your references and the supervisor for your current position? I'm asking because out of my ten years of teaching experience, I had one really tough year. Thoughts?
hahaTechnically, they can contact anyone. In practice, it probably varies quite a bit. I don't they even contacted my then current supervisor because we were living overseas.
Maybe someone hired more recently has a better handle on how far back they went.
Job-related training courses (give title and year). Job-related skills (other languages, computer software/hardware, tools, machinery, typing speed, etc. Job-related certificates and licenses (current only). Job-related honors, awards, and special accomplishments (publications, memberships in professional/honor societies, leadership activities, public speaking, and performance awards.) Give dates, but do not send documents unless requested.
MissamyThank you @haha. I had a similar question. I posted my resume in the documents section under "other." I thought it was weird to not ask for a resume.

The EAS website says, "after submission please check the status module for required supplemental material" where is the status module? I checked in FAQ and didn't see it. Thanks.
SodaMaybe the "Quals" tab? That's where it states if you are qualified/not qualified, pending, or requires more information. I'm not sure what else it would be.
If there's a little red asterisk next to the state teaching certificate and official transcripts, does that mean it uploaded correctly? I've had trouble in the past not clicking something correctly or something.
I saw in a recent post that someone had stated, that reloading documents to the document section generate referrals. Has anyone else found this to be true?
dodhopefulThe only documents I reload every year are my 5 state licenses, my college transcripts, and my PRAXIS scoresheet. That ended up being my only referral for the year and it was a part-time job :(
IcanreadI would even go so far as to say that you should re-upload them on a monthly basis. Try it for a few months and see if it triggers more referrals.
HelpOthersOpen and scan one copy and keep an unopened official copy to have signed and uploaded later. If you are near s DoDEA school or HQ, they can open, verify as originals by signing that they were originals and scan and send copies to you.
My uploaded documents are "official" pdf copies of transcripts that I ordered online. It states on the transcript that it is official. Is this still considered an e-transcript? Or does it really matter because they'll want the unopened after the fact anyways?
My second question is about lodging. My school suggested a hotel which is near the school. I found one with amenities I would prefer a few miles away. I am planning on getting my licence and a rental car on day one so I don't think the distance will be an issue. My question though, how many days should I book the hotel for? I see that there are a lot of TLA options in the area but since it is just me I honestly don't mind staying in a hotel for while so that I can find the right one. Is that frowned upon? Will they require me to get into a unit designated as TLA?
HelpOthersDoDEA is charged more for the rotator than what they pay for most commercial flights, so they prefer you not fly the rotator. If a military travel office is booking, they may not realize this.
@someday THAT DRIVERS TEST...oh my goodness it was something else! 200 question practice test then 100 question test. That and all the videos took forever. I was able to take it last week before coming over. I arrived Sunday and I was in the system Monday afternoon so my sponsor printed out my 1172 so that I can go get my CAC then license Tuesday morning.
