Can you apply?

Yes, if you are a U.S. citizen: this job is open to everyone.

  • Open to everyoneAny U.S. citizen or national can apply. Some jobs also accept non-citizens; the announcement says so.

This job is open to the public, but only U.S. citizens, nationals, or people who owe allegiance to the U.S. can apply. You must prove U.S. citizenship.

Do you qualify for AD?

With education: You need at least 24 semester hours in special education, including 12 semester hours directly related to teaching students with visual impairments. Required topics include characteristics of students with visual impairments, orientation and mobility, Braille instruction, eye medicine and pathology, and curriculum and assessment for students with visual impairments. Braille coursework is required. A current, unrestricted professional teaching license in visual impairment (or the state equivalent) is treated as meeting these course requirements. Foreign degrees must be evaluated before they are accepted.

Licenses and certifications you need:

  • State or territory teaching certification or license, or a DoDEA license (copy required with your application)

How to apply well

What to send:

  • Online DoWEA Employment Application System (EAS) application (required)
  • Copy of your state or territory certification or license, or DoDEA license (required, or you will be rated ineligible)
  • Bachelor's transcript (required); photocopies of front and back, showing the announcement number, in English
  • Master's, EDS, or doctorate transcripts, only if they apply to you
  • DoWEA Student Teaching Completion Memorandum
  • SF-50 if you have federal civil service experience, if applicable
  • DD-214 and SF-15 if you claim veterans' preference, if applicable
  • Marriage certificate and sponsor orders showing the report date if you claim military spouse preference, if applicable

How you will be rated: After the application closes, your qualifications are reviewed and you are ranked. The highest-ranked candidates go to the hiring manager for possible interview as openings occur. If required documents are missing, you may not be considered or rated, and a missing license copy means you will be rated ineligible.

Tips for this job:

  • Apply through the DoWEA EAS link at webapps.dodea.edu, not on USAJOBS, because USAJOBS applications are not considered.
  • Upload a copy of your teaching license or certification, or you will be rated ineligible.
  • Upload front and back copies of all your transcripts, with the announcement number NC7X-27-13102362 written on them, and include any courses in progress.
