I am new to this chat board and extremely happy to have found this group. This is my first year applying to work for the DOD. I have ten years of teaching experience and I am dual certified to teach special education and general education (K-6th). I qualify to teach in about 8 categories and I am willing to move to almost all ...See More

Both administrators I had to tell in advance thought it was a cool thing to try to do. Particularly since you aren't really saying you are unhappy at your current job just want to try for this "dream" one.

My administrators knew that I was applying. It's best to keep them in the loop, in my opinion. I phrased it in the same way... a great job opportunity that may or may not happen.

Applicants are experiencing an error message as they attempt to complete

3 years is pretty much the minimum that DoDEA will be looking for. You have a nice grouping of certs (if DoDEA agrees with you) which could make up for being on the lesser end of experience, to a certain extent.
Everyone faces long odds of getting hired with DoDEA and yours don't really sound any better or worse than anyone else's.

Haha, I know this is an old post. But, I would love to hear more about your experiences as a DODEA Special Ed teacher. What has your average case load been and what type of special ed are you teaching?

I was hired for Moderate to Severe and Learning Impaired Mild to Moderate (middle and high school) and did a bit of both at my first school. I had 2-3 Mod to Severe students that I had for everything except specials and around 10 LIMM students that came to me for Learning Strategies (basically a resource room) and/or individualized ELA/Math. I also...See More
I see posts about email updates, but I never got one. However, I just created an application in Jan for the next school year. After submitting/finalizing, I went back in and changed my target date to 20/21 instead of 21/22.
I emailed HR last week to check on whether or not my app was finalized and I received this response:

I can't even log in either. Yesterday I was able to get in and update all sections except the section titled, "Additional Experiences." That section had an error. This is nerve wracking!

The update your profile email came to me today. The website is super glitchy. Anyone else have that? I'm guessing lots of people are using it at once, maybe? Good luck everyone!

I was finally able to complete every step in updating my application! It is done and I am ready! Fingers crossed for this year!! Hoping and Praying!

beyondhopeful: thanks! I'll finish mine tonight. I'm also hoping and praying for this year. This is 8 years for me and I only have 1-2 years left before I'm going all in on my state's retirement and committing to where I'm at.

"Normally", your start date should be the date you are expected to be at your new post and available to begin work (subject to/working around admin tasks you need to complete to get settled in and be able to live/do your job). Your actual first day of work/teaching responsibilities would generally be discussed with your principal, based upon the sc...See More
