Probationary- 2 years

by Shawna11

Mar 19, 2022

I never see much said about this topic.

How common is it to be let go after two years?

Can it happen after year one, even with a good eval/observations? Can it happen after year two with good evaluations?

Moving abroad is a big step and the 2year probationary period could be a stressful time for some new employees.

IsItFriday? It happens regularly.

But nobody is counting.

It's not in DoDEA's interest to point out their bad hiring decisions, or to track teacher turnover. They get rid of people as quietly as possible, and those people are quickly forgotten.

Some firing decisions are justified. Some leave other teachers puzzled. But the secrecy of...See More

Mar 12, 2022

What happens if I resign after 1 year? I am in Europe, and I am not sure this position is for me. Just want to fully understand what I will have to pay back. Thanks for any info.

uh89 To Woodsie: If you complete your 2 years and give ample notice before any deadlines, you will definitely be able to get your way paid back to the states from where you shipped out originally along with your belongings subject to the same weight limits you had when you moved to your duty station. That said, I'm certain that DODEA has some sort of de...See More

Here's the letter HQ sent out last week:

It's time to update your Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) application in the Employment Application System (EAS) for School Year (SY) 2022/2023. Everyone is required to update ONLINE, no matter how recently your application was submitted. Please complete your annual update by 11:00pm CST on March 1, 2022. Recruitment for the 22/23 SY will begin March 2, 2022, however, your application will not receive consideration until your update is complete. Once your application is updated/finalized you will begin receiving consideration for future vacancies.

**When updating your application, please do not forget to change the year of consideration to SY 2022/2023 and update your availability date.**

You must ensure all aspects of your application are true, up-to-date and reflects your ability, experience, and training as accurately as possible. All 9 sections must be updated. Once you have reviewed each section, click "submit". A green check mark will appear next to the section to confirm it has been successfully submitted. A green check mark will also appear next to "Finalize your application" to confirm that your application has been finalized. Applications must be complete and finalized to receive consideration.

**Before submitting, be sure to update the School Year to 2022/2023 to be considered**

If you have questions regarding your application, please visit the Frequently Asked Questions page within EAS.

If you are a local applicant residing in the overseas area on sponsors orders (Military or Civilian), you must attach a copy of your sponsor's orders to your EAS application. The orders should be labeled under Military Spouse Preference.

Worldwide applicants that wish to be considered for overseas positions must choose every country where they are willing to work. If an opening becomes available for a location that you have not selected, you will not be considered for that opening.

Applicants must provide at least 3 evaluations. If you are a Current/Former DoDEA employee, please ensure that you obtain and upload a DoDEA 5011 Professional Evaluation from your current or last former DoDEA principal/supervisor to your EAS application.

Thank you for your continued interest in teaching with DoDEA.

Jaubrey23 Thank you so much for this post I totally would have missed the communication.

Ms.C If you are on a two year tour and are excessed after 1 year and say no, do you have to repay anything?

Mar 14, 2022

Icanread That's a good question for HR. You signed a mobility agreement and transportation agreement so I'm assuming that the answer would be "yes, you have to repay if you don't fulfill the agreement."
