Here are some highlights and points to keep in mind:
- The internal transfer process is only open to Tenured teachers unless approved by HR. Non-tenured teachers may only participate if it is their final (third) year of non-tenured status.
- You apply for an internal transfer by applying through the AACPS online job board. You may follow up with that building’s principal as needed.
- If you accept a position, you must immediately let your current principal know so they can start the process of filling your current position.
- Your current principal does not need to consent to an internal transfer.
- If your application is denied, you may request specific reasons for the denial in writing.
- You have two (2) business days to accept or reject an offer of internal transfer. While the internal transfer process opens in March, positions are posted on a rolling basis as faculty retire, transfer themselves etc.
Per the negotiated agreement, Unit I employees should be notified about their assignment for the upcoming school year by June 1 each year. To ensure this will occur, either the chair of the building reps or the Faculty Council should share the language below with the building principal; non-school-based employees should be notified by their supervisor by the same date as well. If this does happen at your building or worksite, members should contact their UniServ Director at 410-224-3330. (Article 12.E)
When a Unit I employee is offered a position through the transfer process, they have two (2) business days to accept the position. In addition, the employee is obligated to notify their principal, or supervisor, so that a vacancy can be created for the newly vacated position. (Article 12.A.6 and 12.A.8)
