Internal Transfer Application

Thank you to all who expressed interest in a potential transfer of position or campus in the Placement Preference Survey. We're excited to continue the internal transfer process and ask that you complete your online application here through Paycom to move forward with this process.

PURPOSE

The purpose of this posting is to enable staff to formally apply for a transfer between campuses.

Your transfer preferences for new opportunities and campuses were noted in the Placement Preference Survey submitted to Human Resources. This application process is to ensure that we have a current resume and updated scope of your experiences, certifications and education. We cannot move your transfer forward without a formal application.

GUIDING PHILOSOPHY

LEARN Charter School Network is committed to sustaining our culture and high expectations academic model. We support transfers to encourage the career interests of our staff and to retain strong talented people in our Network, while encouraging stability and continuity of their current campus by minimizing staff turnover. Its a balancing act. And always there are more transfer requests than the network will have open positions at the campuses of interest to potential transferees.

POLICY

Staff may be considered for multiple campuses or positions through this single application. Transfer and promotion decisions are based on long-term strategic goals of a campus, an employees performance, applicable skills, and career growth considerations, and the employee's potential for success in the new position. The most important factor is whether a transfer is in the best interest of the network and the scholars who might be impacted. There will be a limit on the maximum number of staff allowed to transfer from an existing campus in a given year.

1. Please complete the internal transfer application by uploading an up-to-date resume and cover letter. Please be sure to note the campus(es) and role(s) in which you are expressing transfer interest. Applications must be submitted by March

2. Strong preference will be given to individuals who:

• Have been with the network for more than a year.
• Have achieved a Proficient or above teaching proficiency rating, or Effective or above overall performance rating; or if no recent rating is available have demonstrated effective performance via current observations.
• Have demonstrated a growth mindset
• Have not received a performance counseling within the past 12 months.

3. Your request will be shared with the campus(es) you have indicated on the Placement Preference Survey or the application if different from the survey; and if the campus has a related opening. Principals will review and consider applications and conduct any interviews between now and the end of March.

4. Based on the qualifications submitted, and campus/network needs, you may be invited to interview for available open position(s).

5. If invited, either HR or the principal will inform your current principal of the pending interview. Also anticipate the new principal will ask your current principal for insights into your past performance.

6. Submission of an application does not guarantee an interview.

7. Campus principals with their peers and the HR Talent Team discuss transfers to be offered.

8. If offered, staff members will have 3 work days to accept or decline the new opportunity.

9. HR will close the loop with any applicants who are not invited to interview and/or not offered a transfer.
